Aneurysm treatment
Because an aneurysm may continue to increase in size, along with weakening of the artery wall, treatment is required to prevent rupture. With rupture, life-threatening hemorrhage is possible, so it is important to have a known aneurysm carefully monitored by your Baylor Scott & White team.
Treatment plans for patients will be determined by their care team based on age, medical history, type and stage of aneurysm and personal preferences. Options may include:
- Medicine
- Monitoring
- Embolization
