Second Opinions for Brain Aneurysms
A brain aneurysm diagnosis can come with big decisions. Many patients will be advised to monitor their brain aneurysm over time, but there are medical and treatment options available for you to consider. NGPG’s advanced neurosciences program offers second opinions to help you fully understand your condition and treatment options. Our specialized neurointerventional surgeons can evaluate your imaging, review your risks and provide clear recommendations so you feel confident moving forward.
Why choose NGPG for brain aneurysm treatment?
Minimally Invasive, Faster Recovery
Using a microcatheter and high-resolution imaging, our neurointerventional surgeons treat aneurysms from inside the blood vessel, resulting in smaller incisions, less pain and shorter recovery times.
Experienced Neurointerventional Specialists
Our board-certified physicians have extensive experience treating complex neurovascular conditions, including aneurysms that were previously considered untreatable or required more invasive approaches.
Integrated, High-Level Care
Patients benefit from a coordinated team approach, bringing together neurointerventional specialists, neurology, neurosurgery and critical care experts.
Brain Aneurysm Care
Discovering an aneurysm can feel overwhelming, but early diagnosis gives you time to make informed decisions. A brain aneurysm is a weakened area in a blood vessel that balloons outward; if it ruptures, it becomes a medical emergency. Some aneurysms can be safely monitored, while others may benefit from early repair. Our specialists guide you through every option.
Treatment Options
We offer both minimally invasive and traditional treatments based on your aneurysm’s size, location and risk factors:
- Endovascular Coiling: Tiny coils are placed inside the aneurysm to prevent blood flow and reduce rupture risk.
- Flow Diversion: A stent-like device reroutes blood flow away from the aneurysm to allow healing.
- Intrasaccular Embolization: Used for treatment of complex wide-necked aneurysms, where a special self-expanding, detachable mesh implant is used to seal the aneurysm.
- Microsurgical Clipping (at NGMC): A proven open surgical option for certain aneurysm types.
