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.

What causes cerebral aneurysms?
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.
What are the 3 major aneurysms?

What part of the body usually get the aneurysm?
Aneurysms commonly occur in the brain (cerebral aneurysms), the aorta (aortic aneurysms), and, less frequently, in the peripheral arteries such as those in the legs or pelvis. Cerebral aneurysms can lead to strokes if they rupture, while aortic aneurysms can cause life-threatening internal bleeding. Each type poses unique risks depending on its location and size.
What are the demographics of cerebral aneurysms?
medical researchers estimate that 1-5% of the population has some type of cerebral aneurysm. Aneurysms rarely occur in the very young or the very old; about 60% of aneurysms are diagnosed in people between ages 40 and 65.
