Brain aneurysms are discovered more and more frequently in people undergoing brain imaging, such as MRI, for other reasons, such as evaluation of headaches, after head trauma or in work-up of other neurological symptoms. Often in these situations, the aneurysm itself is an incidental finding, unrelated to the symptoms that prompted the imaging. However, once diagnosed, it is important to consult with a neurosurgeon to review the findings, determine if further imaging is needed, and discuss management options.
These options can include:
Observation with follow-up imaging at future intervals to monitor for any change or growth of the aneurysm
Aneurysm treatment with either surgical clipping or endovascular coiling.
It is important to discuss and explore these options with a neurosurgeon specializing in aneurysm management.
