Robert D. Brown Jr., M.D., M.P.H., E. Paul Lindell, M.D.,Giuseppe Lanzino, M.D., and Harry Cloft, M.D., Ph.D., explain what a brain aneurysm is and the different treatment options there are at Mayo Clinic for a patient with a brain aneurysm.

Mayo Clinic neurovascular experts care for 17,000 people each year with aneurysms, strokes, and other blood vessel and cerebrovascular conditions. Each brain aneurysm is unique. Your doctor will use state-of-the-art arterial imaging to evaluate, diagnose and assess the aneurysm’s risk of rupture.

Every patient has team of doctors working together to create an individualized path of care. Some aneurysms do not require surgery and are closely monitored instead.
