📋Overview
Brain aneurysm is a localized dilation or ballooning of a blood vessel in the brain due to weakening of the vessel wall. It is also known as cerebral aneurysm. This condition can remain asymptomatic or may rupture, causing bleeding into the space around the brain (subarachnoid hemorrhage). The term 'brain aneurysm' is the preferred modern terminology.
