Hi there

My aneurysm was on the pericallosal artery too. I had it clipped in 2004. Because of its location, my Neurosurgeon said it was too risky to coil because the artery is small and is kind of 'out a long way' - and therefore, harder to access with a coil and the risk of stroke during angiogram was higher.

Six years on, I don't know what the thoughts on this are, but at that time, clipping was the only viable option.

Cheers

Lyn
