Cerebral Aneurysms

Cerebral aneurysms are weak spots in the walls of blood vessels in the brain that can balloon out or bulge. This can happen when the vessel’s structure is compromised. If an aneurysm grows large enough, it may rupture, leading to bleeding in the brain, which is a type of stroke. Symptoms might include a sudden, severe headache, vision problems, or loss of consciousness. Treatment options vary and may include monitoring, endovascular therapy, or surgery, depending on the aneurysm’s size and location. Early detection and intervention are crucial for reducing the risk of complications.
