BRAIN ANEURYSM SURGICAL CASE SERIES FEATURING BABAK JAHROMI, MD, PHD

In this seven-part video series, Babak S. Jahromi, MD, PhD, shares operative insights from the treatment of complex brain aneurysms. Through surgical footage and imaging review, he highlights the rationale, techniques and decision-making that guide his advanced microsurgical and endovascular interventions.

FEATURED VIDEOS

Minimally Invasive Supraorbital Craniotomy for AComm Aneurysm
Dr. Jahromi demonstrates a minimally invasive superorbital craniotomy to address an aneurysm pressing on the optic nerve in a middle-aged female patient.
Bilateral Staged Pterional Craniotomy for Multiple MCA Aneurysms
Dr. Jahromi treats a patient with multiple bilateral middle cerebral artery aneurysms, opting for a comprehensive surgical solution that allows him to address multiple aneurysms on each side through a single surgical exposure.
Trapping and Bypass for Giant Partially Thrombosed MCA Aneurysm
Dr. Jahromi performs a complex trapping procedure combined with a bypass graft in a younger female patient who presented with a giant partially thrombosed middle cerebral artery aneurysm causing seizures.
Trapping and Resection for Giant Partially Thrombosed SCA Aneurysm
A giant superior cerebellar artery aneurysm is surgically debulked to relieve pressure on the brainstem.
Retrosigmoid Craniotomy for Recurrent PICA Aneurysm Clipping
Dr. Jahromi combines initial endovascular coiling and subsequent surgical clipping to manage a ruptured posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysm.
Endovascular Flow Diversion for Giant Supraclinoid Carotid Aneurysm
A young patient presents with a giant partially thrombosed brain aneurysm causing strokes. Dr. Jahromi uses endovascular methods, including telescoping flow-diverting stents, to reconstruct the carotid artery while promoting aneurysm thrombosis through supplementary coil placement.
Y-Stent Assisted Coiling for Recurrent Basilar Artery Aneurysm
A patient with a previously clipped basilar artery aneurysm returns with a recurrence after two decades. Dr. Jahromi employs Y-stenting to provide robust packing for the new aneurysm growth while preserving the posterior cerebral arteries.
Babak S. Jahromi, MD, PhD, vice chair of Regional Neurosurgery, and professor of Neurological Surgery, Neurology, and Radiology at Northwestern Medicine, is a dual-trained neurosurgeon specializing in endovascular and cerebrovascular surgery.​
