First-line treatments
Pharmacological management with first-line agents
Active treatment with regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is recommended.
Endovascular flow diversion
Placement of a flow-diverter stent across the aneurysm neck to redirect blood flow and promote aneurysm thrombosis. Effective for larger or more complex aneurysms.
Antihypertensive and lipid management
Combined pharmacological approach to control blood pressure and manage cholesterol levels, addressing modifiable risk factors for aneurysm progression.
Additional treatment options
Surgical clipping with possible bypass
Microsurgical approach to clip the aneurysm with potential use of bypass grafting if parent vessel preservation is needed. Reserved for complex cases.
surgicalDigital subtraction angiography
Detailed catheter-based imaging to precisely characterize aneurysm anatomy and guide treatment planning for complex lesions.
monitoringStress reduction and blood pressure monitoring
Implementing stress management techniques and home blood pressure monitoring to maintain optimal control and identify fluctuations early.
