2. Endovascular coiling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endovascular_coiling

   Endovascular coiling is an endovascular treatment for intracranial aneurysms and bleeding throughout the body. The procedure reduces blood circulation to the aneurysm through the use of microsurgical detachable platinum wires, with the clinician inserting one or more into the aneurysm until it is determined that blood flow is no longer occurring within the space.

3. Clipping (medicine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipping_(medicine)

   Clipping is a surgical procedure performed to treat an aneurysm. If the aneurysm is intracranial, a craniotomy is performed, and afterwards an Elgiloy (Phynox) or titanium Sugita clip is affixed around the aneurysm's neck. Surgical clipping was introduced by Walter Dandy of the Johns Hopkins Hospital in 1937.

4. Coronary artery aneurysm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_artery_aneurysm

   The smaller the aneurysm the better the prognosis. There is less risk for ischemic myocardial damage and mortality with smaller aneurysms. Aneurysms with an internal diameter > 8 mm have poorer outcomes, since these aneurysms can be occluded and be associated with complications such as arrhythmias, myocardial infarction, or sudden death. [2]

5. Aneurysm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aneurysm

   A true aneurysm is one that involves all three layers of the wall of an artery (intima, media and adventitia).True aneurysms include atherosclerotic, syphilitic, and congenital aneurysms, as well as ventricular aneurysms that follow transmural myocardial infarctions (aneurysms that involve all layers of the attenuated wall of the heart are also considered true aneurysms).

6. Interventional radiology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interventional_radiology

   During this treatment, an interventional radiologist inserts a catheter into the patient's leg and uses it to guide a coil through blood vessels to the site of the aneurysm. The coil induces clotting within the aneurysm, which reduces the risk of rupture. Multiple coils may be used depending on the size. [33]

7. Subarachnoid hemorrhage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subarachnoid_hemorrhage

   Clipping requires a craniotomy (opening of the skull) to locate the aneurysm, followed by the placement of clips around the neck of the aneurysm. Coiling is performed through the large blood vessels (endovascularly): a catheter is inserted into the femoral artery in the groin and advanced through the aorta to the arteries (both carotid arteries ...

9. Intracranial hemorrhage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intracranial_hemorrhage

   These inflammation and thrombis can caused by infective endocarditis, artificial heart valve or other heart problems. Similar to vasculitis, rupture of mycotic aneurysm also causes SAH in cerebral sulci, mostly located in the vertex. If mycotic aneurysm is located more proximally, it will produce diffuse SAH pattern.
