brain aneurisum?

Question

coil procredure for brain aneurisum

Answer 1

You have not asked any question about Brain Aneurisum. However I am giving below some information I gathered -

A cerebral or brain aneurysm is a cerebrovascular disorder in which weakness in the wall of a cerebral artery or vein causes a localized dilation or ballooning of the blood vessel.

A common location of cerebral aneurysms is on the arteries at the base of the brain, known as the Circle of Willis. Approximately 85% of cerebral aneurysms develop in the anterior part of the Circle of Willis, and involve the internal carotid arteries and their major branches that supply the anterior and middle sections of the brain. The most common sites include the anterior communicating artery (30-35%), the bifurcation of the internal carotid and posterior communicating artery (30-35%), the bifurcation of the middle cerebral artery (20%), the bifurcation of the basilar artery, and the remaining posterior circulation arteries (5%).

Aneurysms may result from congenital defects, preexisting conditions such as high blood pressure and atherosclerosis (the buildup of fatty deposits in the arteries), or head trauma. Cerebral aneurysms occur more commonly in adults than in children but they may occur at any age. They are slightly more common in women than in men.
A small, unchanging aneurysm will produce no symptoms. Before a larger aneurysm ruptures, the individual may experience such symptoms as a sudden and usually severe headache, nausea, vision impairment, vomiting, and loss of consciousness, or the individual may be asymptomatic, experiencing no symptoms at all. Onset is usually sudden and without warning. Rupture of a cerebral aneurysm is dangerous and usually results in bleeding into the meninges or the brain itself, leading to a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) or intracranial hematoma (ICH), either of which constitutes a stroke. Rebleeding, hydrocephalus (the excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid), vasospasm (spasm, or narrowing, of the blood vessels), or multiple aneurysms may also occur. The risk of rupture from an unruptured cerebral aneurysm varies according to the size of an aneurysm, with the risk rising as the aneurysm size increases. The overall rate of aneurysm rupture is estimated at 1.3% per year. The risk of short term re-rupture increases dramatically after an aneurysm has bled, though after approximately 6 weeks the risk returns to baseline.

gency treatment for individuals with a ruptured cerebral aneurysm generally includes restoring deteriorating respiration and reducing intracranial pressure. Surgery is usually performed within the first three days to occlude the ruptured aneurysm and reduce the risk of rebleeding. Traditionally this was performed by neurosurgeons clipping the aneuysm, but increasingly this is performed by interventional neuroradiologists placing coils in the aneurysm. This new technique is less invasive. During these procedures, a thin, hollow tube (catheter) is inserted in the groin area and threaded through the blood vessels to the site of the aneurysm in the brain. Once the catheter reaches the aneurysm, tiny platinum coils are placed inside blocking blood flow and preventing rebleeding-.

Answer 2

Minimally-Invasive Treatment
Coil Embolization or Endovascular Coiling

Endovascular therapy is a minimally invasive procedure that accesses the treatment area from within the blood vessel. In the case of aneurysms, this treatment is called coil embolization, or "coiling". In contrast to surgery, endovascular coiling does not require open surgery. Instead, physicians use real-time X-ray technology, called fluoroscopic imaging, to visualize the patient's vascular system and treat the disease from inside the blood vessel.

Endovascular treatment of brain aneurysms involves insertion of a catheter (small plastic tube) into the femoral artery in the patient's leg and navigating it through the vascular system, into the head and into the aneurysm. Tiny platinum coils are threaded through the catheter and deployed into the aneurysm, blocking blood flow into the aneurysm and preventing rupture. The coils are made of platinum so that they can be visible via X-ray and be flexible enough to conform to the aneurysm shape. This endovascular coiling, or filling, of the aneurysm is called embolization and can be performed under general anesthesia or light sedation. More than 125,000 patients worldwide have been treated with detachable platinum coils.

Answer 3

I'm more right brained since I enjoy art more than math and science lol. My mind feels so much more at ease where I don't have to think and just observe what I see and take it as it is or make something creative out of it. But I also use my left brain from time to time because I am an analyzer who likes to think about what I observed, and since I'm an ambitious person, no matter how much I dislike science and math or anything that's not really art related to me I make sure I do well in them because I find it beneficial. I'm a capricorn

Answer 4

I don't know what that is, but my husband died of a brain aneurism 10 years ago, and with two different surgeries, he was unable to make it...the doctor explained to me that it depends where the bleed is in the brain that determines how much of a successful recovery it will be...he also explained to me that if my husband hadn't been so healthy his whole life, he'd had stood a better chance of survival...doesn't make sense to me, but that's all I have for you...

Answer 5

If your question is, What is a brain aneurysm. I think it is a weak spot in a blood vessel kind of a sac. It could rupture at anytime and usually leads to death or at least to brain dead. Just my opinion. My father died from one.

Answer 6

OK so your Q makes no sense !!
My sister survived an aneurism in her brain
and would now be considered a
"walking statistic", not very common though.
I hope that no one you know is going
through this.

Answer 7

have no idea what that is or what your question is but my father died of a brain aneurism. Very deadly!

Answer 8

your question does not make sense.
