Brain Aneurysm

These conditions require careful evaluation by a neuro specialist or neurosurgeon. We use state-of-the-art imaging technology — invasive and noninvasive — to make the best diagnosis and to guide treatment. These highly sophisticated images can pinpoint the location, type, size and other important information about your aneurysm to help better determine the risks and benefits of therapy.

Our neuroradiology and neurosurgery teams are experienced in MRI perfusion imaging, CT angiography, and catheter angiography when required. Because our noninvasive imaging is at such a high level, we can often avoid invasive procedures for diagnosis and reserve catheter angiography for when interventional treatment is planned.

Our team of experienced specialists works closely together to develop the best treatment plan for your needs. Treatments include the following:

• Watchful waiting: If an aneurysm has not ruptured and is very small, we may recommend observation with periodic imaging. Conservative management is often chosen for elderly patients or those with significant medical comorbidities.
• Surgical treatment: Microsurgical clipping remains the standard open surgical option for many aneurysms. In selected cases, bypass procedures can be combined with occlusion of the aneurysm.
• Endovascular treatments: Minimally invasive endovascular techniques (coiling, stent-assisted coiling, flow-diverting stents) allow treatment through tiny catheters navigated via blood vessels — often avoiding open skull surgery. These procedures are performed in our angiography suites by specialized neuro-interventional teams and are a major component of modern brain aneurysm care at a leading brain surgery hospital.

Treatment choice depends on aneurysm size, location, anatomy, patient age, and overall health. Our multidisciplinary conferences — involving neurosurgery, neuro-intervention, neuroradiology and neurology — ensure each patient receives personalized, evidence-based care.

If you or a loved one needs evaluation for a possible brain aneurysm, our neuro specialists at Nano Hospitals Hulimavu and Nano Hospitals Uttarahalli in Bengaluru provide prompt assessment, advanced imaging, and access to both minimally invasive and surgical treatment options.
