The Natural History of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms

New England Journal of Medicine, 1981
This study defines the natural history of a selected group of 65 patients with 81 unruptured intracranial saccular aneurysms who did not undergo surgery. Eight of the 65 patients with aneurysms had intracranial hemorrhage due to aneurysmal rupture over a mean follow-up interval of slightly over eight years.

Risks of surgery for unruptured intracranial aneurysms [PDF]

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1986
✓ A series is presented of 43 patients with multiple aneurysms and subarachnoid hemorrhage in whom a second operation was necessary in order to clip all the aneurysms. There was one surgical death due to coronary thrombosis and infarction which occurred 3 weeks after surgery, for a surgical mortality rate of 2.3%.

New Therapies for Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms

Neurologic Clinics, 2013
The concept of flow diversion is based on placing a stent across the neck of an intracranial aneurysm, which then results in flow away from the aneurysm, inducing thrombosis and occlusion of the aneurysm over time. Modern flow diverters, such as the Pipeline embolization device, are currently used for unruptured anterior circulation aneurysm.

Surgical management of unruptured intracranial aneurysms

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1994
✓ The surgical management of patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms continues to be controversial. The criteria for withholding treatment or choosing between endovascular embolization and conventional microsurgery are not well delineated.

The Clinical Spectrum of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms

Archives of Neurology, 1993

Treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms: a review

Expert Review of Neurotherapeutics, 2016
Unruptured brain aneurysms (UIAs) present a challenge due to the lack of definitive understanding of their natural history and treatment outcomes. As the treatment of UIAs is aimed at preventing the possibility of rupture, the immediate risk of treatment must be weighed against the risk of rupture in the future.

[Management of unruptured intracranial aneurysms].

Ugeskrift for laeger, 2019
This review aims at summarising, whether unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) should be managed by immediate closure or surveillance imaging. If small UIAs should receive immediate closure might be up for a paradigm shift. The most fatal consequence of a UIA is rupture, as it carries a high mortality and morbidity.

Unruptured intracranial aneurysms in haemodialysis patients

Nephrology, 2003
SUMMARY:  While the mortality rate of subarachnoid haemorrhage is very high in haemodialysis (HD) patients, the prevalence of unruptured intracranial aneurysms in HD patients has not yet been elucidated. We performed cerebral magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) on 123 HD patients who did not have symptomatic cerebrovascular disease, and on 52 control ...

Management of patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2019
Purpose of review Intracranial aneurysms are frequent incidental findings on cranial imaging. The decision for preventive treatment depends on the presumed risk of rupture, the efficacy and risk of complications of preventive treatment, and the quality of life having to live with an unruptured aneurysms.
