Aneurysm

A ascending aortic aneurysm are the second most common aortic aneurysms to abdominal aortic aneurysms. These aneuryms are typically diagnosed in patients that are in their 6th or 7th decade in life. A patient experiencing an ascending aortic aneurysms will feel chest pain.

Although it is much more likely for the elderly to have an aneurysm than for children to have such an ailment, it is possible.

Yes, if the aneurysm produced a clot that traveled to the brain.

I answered this already and dont know where the answer is... short answer is yes... if you live that long... 12 years is average... but if you have a mechanical valve its closer to 20 years, but a lot of people have cow or pig valves, and the flesh wears out earlier mostly cause it doesnt get regenerated like human parts. the trick with mechanical valves is you have to take blood thinners forever to keep the blood from gumming up the valve.

An aneurysm is caused by a thinning of the arterial wall which causes a ballooning effect. If the aneurysm bursts serious physical harm results.

A brain aneurysm is an aneurysm that occurs in the brain. An aneurysm is the bulging of an artery that results from weakness in the artery's wall. The major complication of aneurysms is that the wall can become so weak that the aneurysm ruptures, causing hemorrhage that can ultimately lead to death if not treated quickly.

There are generally two classes of brain aneurysms: berry (saccular) aneurysms and Charcot-Bouchard aneurysms. Berry aneurysms have a tendency to occur in families (eg, in association with a disease called polycystic kidney disease), although they are less commonly associated with hypertension (high blood pressure). They most commonly occur in the circle of Willis, a major system of arteries that provides blood to the brain. Since the circle of Willis is outside of the brain, ruptured berry aneurysms don't frequently cause intracerebral (within the brain) hemorrhages; they usually cause subarachnoid hemorrhages.

Charcot-Bouchard aneurysms, on the other hand, are most commonly associated with hypertension and typically occur in the small arteries that penetrate into the brain. As a result, a ruptured Charcot-Bouchard aneurysm leads to an intracerebral hemorrhage.

Hypothermia usually comes from exposure to the cold. The only real way that you could have it through epilepsy would be if someone had a seizure or had an aneurism in a very cold location and was unconscious. So the answer in reality is know, as Epilepsy and aneurysms would not cause hypothermia directly.

Your question has no definite answer. An aneurysm is a ballooning in an artery. That means a weak place in an artery wall starts becoming larger and larger and looks like a balloon. If the balloon pops, blood no longer goes through the artery but out into your body.

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?

A bubble in your bloodstream.

However, if the aneurysm is untreated and eventually ruptures, less than half of the people with ruptured aneurysms will survive.

Sometimes no treatment is necessary, sometimes medication will suffice. but most sufferers have a shunt fitted to drain excess fluid from the skull. Hydrocephalus is a brain disorder that is usually the result of another problem within the skull.

abdominal aortic aneurysm...... this is when the main artery from your heart that passes blood through your stomach is blocked. caused by clotting. an abdominal aorticaneurysm is a serious life threatening condition and should be treated immediately. if the aneurysm reaches to a point where it bursts the person may only have minutes even seconds left to live. the symptoms of an abdominal aortic aneurysm are.... pulsating of the stomach... abdominal cramps or stiff feeling pains in the lower back.. you may feel Daisy or light headed when exercising or lifting heavy objects. tiredness, decreased appetite, these are only a few of the symptoms, if you are curious and want more information the do not hesitate to contact your local GP after all that's what there their for. thanks Andy cardiovascular surgeon

Aortoplasty is a general term for surgical repair of the aorta.

That depends on the type of repair that is being performed, it can be called "Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair" when it is a surgical procedure to repair an aortic aneurysm done through the major blood vessels of the body. Depending on the procedure used and the problem being repaired different techniques may be used such as:

Patching, used when there are tears in the valve, fixed through surgical insertion of a tissue patch.

Commissurotomy, which is when the valve is narrowed, an incision of a commissure into the valve is used to fix the problem.

Reshaping, used to reshape the valve so that it can close properly.

Valvuloplasty, used to increase opening of valve and improve blood flow when the valve has become rigid with calcium buildup. This is done through the insertion of a balloon catheter.

Decalcification, used when there is a calcium build up, removes excess calcium so that valve can function properly.

If it's a structural MRI, it will show you a picture of the structure of your brain, allowing you to see the shape and location of different brain areas. Since the 'normal' layout of the brain is known, an individual's brain can then be compared to the 'normal' brain to check for abnormalities like bleeding in the brain, or tumors, or signs of cell death, etc.

If it's a functional MRI (fMRI), it shows the activity of brain regions. For example, if you scan a person who is not looking at anything, you will see an image of the brain activity. Now, if you scan this same person while they are looking at something, you will see that the areas responsible for visual processing have a higher level of activity. Subtracting the amount of activity from the image taken when the person wasn't looking at something from the image taken when they were will let you determine how much this brain region activated in response to what you showed them.

yes, in my family I have had one at age 38, my father at age 69, my neice at age 10, my brother at age 33 and my cousin at 20. My brother is the only one to die as a result.

While there are 12 identified Genetic mutations with as Many as another 5 have Not been Identified as of yet , However, That does NOT in fact mean That Anuerysms are strickly Passed geneticly... Its possible to have a Dissection from Trauma and as well suffer a dissection due to Hypertension and Artheriosclerosis, periferal artery disease, Cholesterol issues and more.

a "dissection" and any anuerysm can be any of the following a Pocket which goes through the intima layer, 2) in and back into the vessel through the intima layer and back through downstream (can block branchs that feed organs) and the 3rd is Through the Intima Layer and out through the outside of the Outter most Layer, A Blowout and leading to bleeding to death in as little as a few minutes.....

An aortalgia is an instance of pain caused by an aneurysm or similar condition of the aorta.

The treatment options for a carotid aneurysm are usually Clipping or coiling Clipping is an open procedure, usually performed by a neurosurgeon. An inscision is made and a small clip is placed over the aneurysm. The purpose of this is to prevent blood flow into the aneurysm and possible rupture. Coiling is a minimally invasive procedure. A thin tube is placed into the femoral artery, located in the groin and manouvered into the carotid artery. This is done under fluroscopy (x ray) imaging normally. Small metal colis are passed through ths tube, providing haemostasis within the aneurysm. Both procedures have similar success rates, however, coiling is becoming increasingly popular as the recovery period is usually quicker.

Aneurysmorrhaphy is a surgical procedure used to repair an aneurysm, which is an abnormal bulge in a blood vessel due to weakness in the vessel wall. During the procedure, the aneurysm is typically opened, the inner lining may be reinforced or repaired, and the surrounding tissue is sutured to restore normal blood flow and stability. This technique can be employed for various types of aneurysms, including those in arteries, to prevent rupture and reduce the risk of complications.

A painful abdominal aortic aneurysm usually means that the aneurysm could burst very soon.
