Aneurysmal localization is important for effective treatment. We used Aquarius NET® (TeraRecon, Inc, Durham, USA) to review cases of middle cerebral artery aneurysms treated between June 2015 and September 2018 and simulated surgical clipping on them. The XY plane represented the surgical field with a transsylvian approach, while the Z axis corresponded to the visual axis. The distribution map of all 36 aneurysms was plotted onto the XY plane, in the vicinity of the lateral side of the sphenoid ridge, which was the origin. The use of Aquarius NET® to plot the coordinates of aneurysms can be practical and useful in the simulation of surgical clipping.
