Depends: On size and location. See your neurosurgeon. May need surgical clipping or coiling with a small catheter. See brainaneurysm.Com.

Good if no bleed: If you can have the aneurysm treated before it bleeds, you should have no effect on your life expectancy. If it bleeds, it depends on how bad the bleed is.
