Abstract

The morbidity and mortality rates of the patients who survive initial aneurysm rupture were disconcertingly high. So the best results of treating intracranial aneurysms can be achieved with treating aneurysm before they rupture. But, the natural history, especially risk of bleeding, of the unruptured intracranial aneurysms is still arguable. This review article included risks of bleeding of the unruptured aneurysm and risk of the surgery.

Key Words: Unruptured aneurysm, Surgical risk, Bleeding risk
