    AbstractThis video demonstrates combined two separate craniotomies for two difficult unruptured cerebral aneurysms. The anterior communicating artery (ACOM) aneurysm existed at a high position, projected posteriorly, and thus necessitated an interhemispheric approach. Left middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysm with complex figure was treated through a separate pterional approach. Meticulous micro-cisternal opening under high magnification enabled safe and effective exposure of both aneurysms with minimal brain retraction, which alleviated brain damage as shown in postoperative images.
