Abstract
There is recent refinement of both endovascular and microsurgical techniques for treatment of neurovascular disorders, namely aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations. These aim at reducing morbidity and mortality of the intended procedures. Durability is a major concern facing the decision making process. Clinicians and patients alike, face this ambiguity as to the so called “best†modality of treatment. We present several cases to illustrate the intersecting rather than parallel nature of the arms of treatment, highlighting the principles behind each decision-making process.
