A novel method for the simulation of the clipping position for cerebral aneurysms based on three-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT) angiography was evaluated. Rotating the regional 3D CT angiography images including the aneurysm provided the virtual intraoperative views of 36 cerebral aneurysms that were eligible for clipping through a pterional approach with a perpendicularly applied straight clip. The cut-along-trace function of the 3D CT workstation was used to simulate the clipping position. The presence or absence of aneurysm remnants was preoperatively evaluated by observing the clipping simulation image. Intraoperative endoscopy and postoperative cerebral angiography were routinely performed to confirm the completeness of obliterations. Nineteen of 21 aneurysms for which complete obliteration was preoperatively expected were confirmed to have no aneurysm remnant. Nine of 15 aneurysms which were expected to have aneurysm remnant were confirmed to persist. The clipping simulation images could correctly predict aneurysm remnant after the initial clipping with a sensitivity of 90.5% and specificity of 60%. The present simulation method can predict aneurysm remnants and improve the likelihood of complete obliteration by clipping.
