Transforming Neurological Challenges Into Triumphs
Building Bridges to a Healthy Brain
Strokes and cerebral aneurysms both involve blood vessels in the brain. An aneurysm is a bulge in the wall of a blood vessel. If a brain aneurysm bursts, a hemorrhagic stroke can occur. A stroke results from a blockage in a blood vessel, but symptoms can be similar
An aneurysm often does not cause symptoms unless it bursts or ruptures. Most diagnoses happen during imaging tests for another condition. A doctor will likely monitor the aneurysm and provide medical or surgical treatment to prevent it from worsening or rupturing
Anyone who has a diagnosed brain aneurysm and develops symptoms should seek medical help as soon as possible. The symptoms may be a warning sign that the aneurysm is going to burst with potentially severe consequences
The symptoms of a burst aneurysm in the brain can range from mild to severe
WE ARE BRINGING MINDS TO LIFE
SURGICAL EXCELLENCE FOR NEUROLOGICAL CHALLENGES
-
Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Bleeding in the area between your brain and the thin tissues that cover and protect it (the arachnoid layer). About 90% of SAHs are due to ruptured brain aneurysms
-
Hemorrhagic Stroke Bleeding in the space between your skull and brain
-
Vasospasm This happens when blood vessels get narrower or clamp down and less oxygen reaches your brain
-
Hydrocephalus This happens when a buildup of cerebrospinal fluid or blood around your brain puts increased pressure on it
-
Seizures It’s a temporary, uncontrolled surge of electrical activity in your brain. It can make brain damage due to a ruptured aneurysm worse
-
Coma A state of prolonged unconsciousness. It can last days to weeks
Empowering the Brain Empowering Life
Preoperative Evaluation
Thorough patient assessment, including medical history and diagnostic imaging studies
Specialized imaging techniques such as MRI to precisely visualize the meningioma and its relationship to the neural tissue
