What is congenital aneurysm?

There are many things a person needs to fight for and protect throughout his life. People should choose the appropriate method to deal with the disease. So what is congenital aneurysm?

Congenital aneurysm is a cerebrovascular disease that often causes subarachnoid hemorrhage. It is not a true intracranial tumor. Congenital aneurysms often occur in the distal end of the arteries or their branches that make up the basilar artery circle of the brain. The incidence rate in the internal carotid artery system is significantly higher than that in the vertebral artery system. It is especially common near the junction of the internal carotid artery and the posterior communicating artery. It is often single, but can also be multiple, and even combined with other types of cerebrovascular malformations. Congenital aneurysms often develop symptoms after adulthood.

Cerebral aneurysm is a saccular tumor formed by the structural maldevelopment of the arterial wall in the brain, or damage to the arterial wall caused by brain trauma, arteriosclerosis, or aging, which causes the local blood vessel wall to swell outward. The arterial wall of congenital aneurysms usually has focal congenital developmental defects, such as weak or absent muscular layer or elastic layer. Under the long-term impact of arterial pressure, the local area gradually expands and becomes an aneurysm, which is often saccular or berry-shaped. Occasionally, it becomes a dissecting aneurysm. Some people also believe that congenital aneurysms are formed on the basis of some embryonic vascular remnants.

The symptoms of congenital aneurysm rupture depend on the size and location of the aneurysm. The onset is usually sudden, with severe headache, vomiting, impaired consciousness or coma. Congenital aneurysm rupture is often caused by emotional excitement, fatigue, drinking, late pregnancy, etc. A small number of patients may have a slow onset and do not have subarachnoid hemorrhage or cerebral parenchymal hematoma, and the condition may not be very serious.

In fact, health is our most precious wealth and what we should protect most. Choosing the appropriate method to deal with the disease is something that everyone should do.
