Aneurysms

Brain aneurysms are abnormal bulges, like small balloons, that form in the wall of arteries in the brain.  These bulges have a risk of bleeding (aka “subarachnoid hemorrhage”).  The risk varies by aneurysm size, location, type, and the patient risk factors.  The risks of the aneurysm should be weighed against the risks of treatment for that aneurysm.  When an aneurysm has already bled, treatment is almost always appropriate.

Treatments

Brain aneurysms can be treated using microsurgery or endovascular surgery, depending on the location and severity.

Microsurgery: A procedure where the aneurysm is clipped to prevent rupture.

Endovascular Surgery: A minimally invasive approach using catheters and coils to reinforce weakened blood vessels.

Each approach has benefits, and treatment is tailored to your specific condition. Learn more about your options below.
