Abstract
A new approach to anterior circulation aneurysms is described in which the position of the surgeon is radically different from usual, allowi ng an enhanced view along the plane of the parent artery with minimal retraction and proximal control. The position of the surgeon and assis tant are comfortable, and the scrub nurse's access to the surgeon's ha nds is greatly enhanced.
