Cerebral aneurysms are usually aneurysms we are born with. There are certain conditions, however, that can predispose one to develop aneurysms later in life. Hypertension can cause small aneurysms in the brain stem and midbrain that can bleed - these usually are not able to be seen because they are so small, however. Another possible cause is infections. These aneurysms are called mycotic aneurysms and are the result of infectious material, or emboli, being lodged in the cerebral arteries, causing a localized infection and weakening of the artery walls, leading to aneurysmal formation.
These include brain hemorrhages and aneurysms
An aneurysm is caused by a thinning of the arterial wall which causes a ballooning effect. If the aneurysm bursts serious physical harm results.

Aneurysms can occur in any artery of the body. The three most common and the main areas of concern for aneurysms to occur are the brain, abdominal aorta, and the femoral artery.

As an aneurysm is considered a blood clot and a brain aneurysm is classified as a TBI, they both can affect brain activity and neuronal activity in the body; therefore, aneurysms can directly cause seizures, and possibly lead to the disease known as epilepsy. However, a person can develop epilepsy at birth without having an aneurysm. Epilepsy has many causes besides an aneurysm, and many factors and causes, unfortunately, can result in a person being diagnosed with epilepsy and/or seizures.
Barbiturate comas are used to protect the brain during major brain surgery, such as the removal of arteriovenous malformations or aneurysms
if a spleen has calsume build up and has an aneurysm will it burst
aneurysms
A brain aneurysm supplies blood to the brain. There are rare cases in which an aneurysm is removed. Sometimes the artery is not long enough to stitch together and a piece of another artery will then have to be used.
Yes, smoking increases the risk for brain aneurysms by promoting elastin degradation in the brain's blood vessel walls.
