A member asked:
I have had an aneurysm on my brain stem which was repaired with an aneurysm clip, can you still get more aneurysms later?

Possible but unusual: The studies done to identify the first would show any other current ones. Future while unpredictable is low. Ask your neurosurgeon.

Sometimes: Most cerebral aneurysms are congenital in origin and rarely multiple unless you have an underlying genetic condition. If they did a full angiogram in the past, they would have looked at all the vessels. If they did not, you should get one. Smoking is the biggest risk factor for developing cerebral aneurysms.
