A brain aneurysm, medically known as a cerebral aneurysm, develops when a weakened part of a brain artery bulges out, creating a pocket filled with blood. Whether big or small, this ballooned spot in the artery can press on the tissues surrounding it. If the brain aneurysm ruptures, bleeding will occur, a condition known as a hemorrhagic stroke.
The exact number of Americans with a brain aneurysm is hard to determine, as the condition doesn’t usually come with obvious signs and symptoms. However, researchers estimate that around 3-5% of Americans develop brain aneurysms.
According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, around 30,000 people in the United States suffer from a ruptured brain aneurysm every year. Patients who survive will need to undergo neuro rehabilitation to help with their recovery.
