Overview

A brain aneurysm is an abnormal bulge or ballooning in a blood vessel in the brain. It is a serious medical condition that can lead to death if not treated quickly. It is caused by a weakened wall in the blood vessel, resulting in increased pressure in the blood vessel. If left untreated, a brain aneurysm can rupture and cause a stroke, a brain bleed, or death due to pressure on vital structures in the brain. Diagnosis of a brain aneurysm is made by using advanced imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Treatment of a brain aneurysm depends on its size and location, but can involve clipping, coiling, or surgical bypass. Early treatment is essential in improving outcomes.
