Abstract
The nomenclature of the internal carotid artery segments and paraclinoid aneurysms remains confuse. Therefore, each lesion should be idetified by the location of the neck (extradural: C4 and C5 segments; intradural: C6 segment), fundus projection and location (intradural/extradural). The microsurgical clipping of the paraclinoid aneurysms is made easier after intradural anterior clinoidectomy, but this manoeuvre is mandatory for trans-segmentary C5-C6 lesions.
