This Research Topic focuses on the latest advancements and innovative approaches in the field of intracranial aneurysms, arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and other vascular malformations, and connective tissue disorders associated with stroke. Stroke is a leading cause of disability and death worldwide, with a significant portion of cases attributed to aneurysms and vascular/connective tissue disorders. Neurosurgical interventions like clipping, coiling, stenting, flow diversions, embolization, etc play a crucial role in the diagnosis, treatment, and management of these conditions.

The objective of this Research Topic is to highlight novel neurosurgical techniques, diagnoses, therapeutics, and neurosurgical advancements that have emerged in recent years. The Research Topic aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art approaches and future directions in the field, addressing the challenges faced by clinicians and researchers. Topics covered in this article collection encompass a wide range of areas, including but not limited to:

1. Advances in neuroimaging techniques for improved diagnosis and characterization of intracranial aneurysms and vascular/connective tissue disorders associated with stroke.
2. Innovative surgical techniques and approaches for the treatment of aneurysms, including endovascular coiling, flow diversion, and minimally invasive procedures.
3. Role of neurosurgical interventions in the management of vascular/connective tissue disorders, such as AVMs, Moyamoya disease, and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.
4. Emerging therapeutics and pharmacological interventions for the prevention and treatment of aneurysms and vascular/connective tissue disorders associated with stroke.

Contributions to this Research Topic include original research articles and reviews that present cutting-edge research, clinical outcomes, and technological advancements. Please note that case reports should be submitted to the dedicated Research Topic within Frontiers in Neurology, as they cannot be a part of this article collection. The interdisciplinary nature of this field encourages contributions from neurosurgeons, radiologists, geneticists, neurologists, and other related specialists.

Overall, this Research Topic aims to foster knowledge exchange, promote collaboration, and provide a platform for sharing experiences and expertise in the field of aneurysms, vascular and connective tissue disorders associated with stroke. It is hoped that the insights presented in this collection will contribute to improved patient outcomes, enhanced clinical decision-making, and the development of future therapeutic strategies in this critical area of neurosurgery.
