Abstract
Intracranial vascular injury incurred during surgery must be repaired as quickly as possible. The standard repair procedure is surgical suturing. However, the narrow and deep working space may obstruct creating a knot with the suture thread. Resection of an olfactory groove meningioma was performed in a 73-year-old woman via the right lateral supraorbital approach. Tumor retraction caused an injury to the pericallosal artery. After temporary clipping of the vessel, a 10-0 nylon thread was placed on the vascular lesion and the end of the thread was fixed with an aneurysm clip. Fixing the suture thread with an aneurysm clip can be a rescue technique in suturing procedures on deeply located vascular lesions.
