WELCOME TO ANEURYSM THE COMMUNITY: This Patient-To-Patient
Community is for discussions relating to Brain Aneurysms which
is a weak or thin spot on a blood vessel in the brain that
balloons out and fills with blood. The bulging aneurysm can put
pressure on a nerve or surrounding brain tissue. It may also
leak or rupture, spilling blood into the surrounding tissue
(called a hemorrhage). Some cerebral aneurysms, particularly
those that are very small, do not bleed or cause other problems.
Cerebral aneurysms can occur anywhere in the brain, but most are
located along a loop of arteries that run between the underside
of the brain and the base of the skull.
