You can have an aneurysm in a number of places in your body and you can have the surgery done in a number of different ways. If a brain aneurysm breaks it is called it is called a stroke. Sometimes, the surgeon takes a stent through an artery to close off the aneurysm. Sometimes it is done through the skin. Sometimes a patient is up the next day. Sometimes, if it was in the brain and hard to get to, it is quite a while. How long does it take to drive through town when there are traffic jams?
