Brain Aneurysm Repair

Brain aneurysm repair is a medical procedure to prevent a burst in a weakened blood vessel in the brain. Doctors typically perform either surgery — clipping the aneurysm with a tiny metal clip to block blood flow — or a minimally invasive method called coiling, where soft coils are inserted via a catheter to fill the aneurysm and prevent rupture. These treatments reduce the risk of bleeding, which can cause stroke or brain damage. The choice depends on the aneurysm’s size, location, and patient health, and aims to protect brain function and improve long-term outcomes.
