The objective of this study is to verify the performance and safety of the Sugita Aneurysm Clips devices when used as intended and to identify possible risk factors. Data collected will be used to support the continuing performance and safety of the devices in the post-market use environment in Europe. Subjects who have an intracranial aneurysm that the physician intends to treat with the subject devices will be included in the study. Subjects will be followup as per hospital standard of care for 5 years.
