Intracranial Aneurysm Repair

An intracranial aneurysm repair is a medical procedure aimed at treating a bulge in a blood vessel in the brain, which can risk bursting and causing serious complications like a stroke. The repair can be done using two main methods: surgery (clipping), where a small clip is placed at the aneurysm's base to stop blood flow, or endovascular coiling, where tiny coils are inserted into the aneurysm to promote clotting and seal it off. Both methods aim to prevent potential rupture, ensuring the safety and health of the patient.
