Cerebral arterial blood flow was monitored in 22 patients undergoing surgery for intracranial saccular aneurysms. An electromagnetic flow probe was used to record the internal carotid artery (ICA) flow in the neck or intracranially in seven patients. The ICA flow ranged between 100 and 175 ml/min (average 144 ml/min). Intracranial flow measurements with specially designed probes were made in 17 patients. The middle cerebral artery (MCA) showed flow values between 75 and 120 ml/min (average 97 ml/min). Flow figures recorded from the proximal anterior cerebral artery (ACA) were lower (average 65 ml/min), and had a wider range from 30 to 110 ml/min. Test occlusion of the terminal ICA showed a retrograde flow in the proximal ACA to the MCA ranging from 15 to 125 ml/min (average 78 ml/min). This test was used to investigate the collateral potential of the anterior portion of the circle of Willis, which is essential to the decision of whether to undertake trap ligation procedures in this location. Flow monitoring in the parent vessel was also of use in some patients to assess flow conditions after the clipping of the aneurysm neck.
