What is Cerebral Aneurysms?

Cerebral aneurysms are weak or bulging areas in the walls of blood vessels within the brain. They can occur in any part of the brain and may vary in size and shape. Cerebral aneurysms pose a risk because they can rupture, causing bleeding into the surrounding brain tissue, leading to a life-threatening condition called subarachnoid hemorrhage. Most cerebral aneurysms are asymptomatic and go undetected until they rupture or are incidentally discovered during medical imaging for other reasons. Prompt diagnosis and management are crucial to prevent rupture and reduce the risk of complications.
