Aneurysm clipping is a surgical procedure performed to treat a cerebral aneurysm, which is a bulging or ballooning in a blood vessel in the brain. An aneurysm can be dangerous because it may rupture, leading to a potentially life-threatening condition known as a subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Can aneurysms come back after clipping?
While aneurysm clipping is designed to be a permanent solution, there is a small risk of complications such as the clip slipping or the aneurysm regrowing over time. Regular follow-up appointments and imaging studies are essential to monitor for any changes.
How is recovery monitored after aneurysm clipping?
Recovery is monitored through regular follow-up appointments with the neurosurgeon. Imaging studies, such as angiograms or MRIs, may be performed to assess the stability of the clipped aneurysm and overall neurological function.
