Aneurysms

An aneurysm in the brain (also called a cerebral aneurysm or an intracranial aneurysm) is a bulging, weakened area in the middle layer of the wall of a blood vessel in the brain, resulting in an abnormal widening. An aneurysm may occur in any artery, but is often seen in arteries in the brain.
