Depends on detection: Prognosis is bad if untreated, undetected. 25 % will die immediatly , 25 % later in hospital stay, 25 % will have severe neurological problems. Early detection early intervention had good prognosis.

Potentially forever: The 25% fatality statistic etc, only applies to aneurysms that have bled. Those with unruptured aneurysms have the potential of living a normal life and may never have a bleeding episode.
