Rupture of an aneurysm, however, causes intracranial bleeding and may be life threatening, demanding prompt treatment. Immediate treatment is indicated when a patient presents with the sudden onset of what is usually referred to as a most intense thunderclap headache.<\/p>\n
Among the symptoms associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage, sudden onset and intense headache is referred, it may be associated with neck stiffness, pain behind the eye, blurred vision, altered consciousness or loss of consciousness.<\/p>\n
Some of the risk factors associated with developing brain aneurysms are, trauma, advanced age, congenital diseases, smoking, alcohol abuse, high blood pressure.<\/p>\n
As mentioned, congenital anomalies may be associated with the development of intracranial aneurysms, due to connective tissue disorders. Heritage also plays a role in the development of brain aneurysms, and other vascular diseases.<\/p>\n
Treatment of a non-ruptured aneurysm depends on its location, size, type, risk of rupture, patient\u2019s age, health status, as well as of any other medical issues.<\/p>\n
