Patient's question:
Brother has a cerebral aneurysm and is preparing to undergo endovascular surgery. I don't know what the side effects are. What symptoms are there after endovascular surgery for a cerebral aneurysm?Doctor's answer:
During the surgical procedure, when performing angiography, inserting microcatheters, or embolizing with spring coils, there is a possibility of causing an aneurysm to rupture or break. If the bleeding is minimal, after treatment, there will be no lasting aftereffects; however, if the bleeding is significant, the patient may be left with neurological dysfunction. If the patient has atherosclerosis, during the interventional procedure, plaque may detach, leading to a stroke, which may result in speech, limb movement, and other impairments.
