Description
A brain aneurysm is a balloon-like bulge in a blood vessel that can potentially burst. Between 1.5 percent and 5 percent of people have or develop a brain aneurysm, according to the American Stroke Association. Join Wake Forest Baptist Health cerebrovascular surgeon Dr. Kyle Faren as he discusses the natural history of aneurysms, diagnosis and management strategies for unruptured and ruptured aneurysms, and the endovascular and surgical treatment for aneurysms.
