What are Brain Aneurysms?
A Brain Aneurysm, also referred to as a cerebral aneurysm, occurs when a weakened spot forms in the brain’s arteries, creating a balloon-like bulge. While smaller aneurysms are generally not life-threatening, larger ones can rupture, leading to severe complications. These can develop anywhere in the brain but are most commonly detected in the arteries along the skull base.
Recognising the Symptoms of Brain Aneurysms
Symptoms of a brain aneurysm vary based on its size and whether it has ruptured.
Symptoms of a ruptured Brain Aneurysm:
- Sudden severe headaches
- Nausea and vomiting
- Stiff neck
- Vision problems
- Unexplained seizures
- Loss of consciousness
Symptoms of an unruptured Brain Aneurysm:
- Unusual headaches
- Changes in vision
- Dilated pupils
- Seizures
- Facial numbness or tingling
What causes Brain Aneurysms
Brain aneurysms result from weakened arteries due to various conditions, including:
- Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
- Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
- Marfan syndrome
- Fibromuscular dysplasia
- Arteriovenous malformations
- Family history of brain aneurysms
Diagnosis of Brain Aneurysms
Common diagnostic tools for detecting and assessing Brain Aneurysms include:
- Computerized tomography (CT) scan
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
- Cerebral angiography
Management / Treatment of Brain Aneurysms at IBS Hospital
Treatment for brain aneurysms focuses on preventing rupture:
- Microvascular clipping: Pinching off the aneurysm’s base to reduce blood flow.
- Endovascular coiling: Releasing a coil inside the aneurysm to decrease blood flow.
- Stent placement: Diverting blood flow away from the aneurysm.
- WEB device placement: Sealing the aneurysm to prevent blood flow
