Abstract
A new method for producing experimental arterial aneurysms in rats is described. The aneurysms created by this technique resemble the intracranial aneurysms seen clinically in their gross and histologic appearance. The two types of aneurysms are also similar in the skill and techniques required for their microscopic dissection. Using this model, microsurgical techniques for the obliteration of aneurysms can be rehearsed and refined in the laboratory before they are applied clinically.
