Specializes in Interventional Radiology

Aneurysm: An aneurysm is an outpouching of the vessel wall. These can be congenital (from birth) or acquired. What this means is that she is at increased risk of bleeding or stroke. She should be seen by a neurosurgeon to assess the need for embolization or surgery.
