How long does a woman live after aneurysm surgery?

The life expectancy after aneurysm surgery varies from person to person, but if the treatment is timely and good postoperative care is provided, most patients can achieve a good quality of life and a long life. The specific results need to be comprehensively evaluated based on the condition, treatment effect and personal health status.

Aneurysms are abnormal dilation of the artery wall, often in the brain or abdomen, and are a condition that requires prompt treatment. Surgery is an effective treatment for aneurysms, with the goal of preventing them from rupturing. Recovery and life expectancy after surgery are affected by many factors, including age, aneurysm location, postoperative complications, and the patient's lifestyle.

The surgery itself usually involves either craniotomy, clipping or endovascular intervention. During the recovery period, close attention needs to be paid to blood pressure management, avoiding re-compression of the blood vessels or infection. Some patients may experience short-term symptoms such as fatigue, headaches, or decreased physical function, but these problems usually improve with rehabilitation and care. If the aneurysm is not completely healed, regular monitoring may be required.

After a successful operation, patients can prolong their lifespan by following a healthy lifestyle, such as adhering to a low-salt, low-fat diet, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption, exercising moderately, etc., and undergoing regular checkups to ensure that there are no new lesions. If dizziness, headaches, abnormal blood pressure, etc. occur for a long time after the operation, patients should seek medical attention immediately and follow the doctor's advice for further diagnosis and treatment.
