The authors describe in detail the technique of fronto-temporo-sphenoidal craniotomy of Yasargil and stress its advantages in surgical treatment of aneurysms of the circle of Willis. This method was used in surgical treatment of 82 patients with intracranial aneurysms, expanding lesions situated in the vicinity of the sella and ala parva of the sphenoid bone, and with other intracranial processes, and very good conditions for operation were obtained. The authors believe that fronto-temporo-sphenoidal craniotomy is the most favourable approach for the management of aneurysms of the circulus arteriosus.
