Low-quality evidence suggests that small (? 7 mm) unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) have low risk for growth and rupture. Very small aneurysms (? 3 mm) could have even lower rates of growth or ...

More patients undergoing brain-imaging scans are being diagnosed with small aneurysms, or enlargements of an artery, when tested for symptoms like severe headaches. These aneurysms can grow and ...

Small intracranial aneurysms have a low risk for growth and rupture, and very small aneurysms have an even lower risk, although the quality of the evidence is not ideal, results of a new systematic ...

Anything more aggressive than leaving a tiny unruptured intracranial aneurysm alone may be detrimental to the patient's health, researchers suggested. How an aneurysm measuring 3 mm or smaller is ...
