Is a ruptured aneurysm serious? Is there any treatment?

If you have an aneurysm, it is best to relieve it in the early stages of the disease. Once it ruptures, the consequences are serious. So, is a ruptured aneurysm serious? What are the treatment methods?

A cerebral aneurysm is a tumor-like protrusion of an intracranial artery. It is not a real tumor. It is formed when the cerebral blood vessels are impacted by blood flow for a long time! The greatest danger of cerebral arteries is rupture and bleeding, and its mortality rate is very high! After bleeding, the aneurysm lacks the ability to repair itself, and it is easy to bleed continuously, leading to brain herniation and death!

Aneurysms can be treated with surgery, which should be performed after collateral circulation is fully established, usually 3 to 6 months after the aneurysm appears. If conditions permit for arterial transplantation, the surgery can be appropriately advanced.

In any of the following situations, surgery should be performed urgently or as soon as possible: when the aneurysm ruptures or grows rapidly with a tendency to rupture; when there is severe ischemia in the limbs or brain tissue distal to the aneurysm, affecting limb survival or life-threatening brain damage; when the aneurysm becomes infected; when there is severe compression of adjacent tissues and organs; when a dissecting aneurysm is formed.

Surgical methods include aneurysm resection, arterial end-to-end anastomosis or vascular transplantation. Matas test is performed before carotid aneurysm surgery. The surgery uses hypothermia anesthesia to shorten the blood flow blocking time as much as possible, or use temporary internal and external diversion to maintain blood perfusion of brain tissue. There is also aneurysm endovascular repair. It is suitable for pseudoaneurysms or aneurysms that are tightly adhered to adjacent nerves and blood vessels.

Aneurysm tangential resection and arterial repair are suitable for saccular bulging aneurysms. Aneurysm encapsulation. Suitable for patients whose aneurysms cannot be removed or whose patients cannot tolerate resection. Aneurysm proximal and distal artery ligation, autologous vein bypass grafting in anatomical position, and aneurysm cavity drainage. Suitable for infected aneurysms.

After suffering from an aneurysm, everyone should understand their specific situation in time so that they can receive better treatment. In addition, everyone should pay attention to keeping a calm mood in life.
