Vertebral artery aneurysm

Blood Vessels & Circulation
Head & Neck

A vertebral artery aneurysm is a bulge in one of the arteries supplying the back of the brain. It can develop without symptoms and carries a risk of rupture. An MRI may show a focused widening of the vertebral artery consistent with an aneurysm. Finding a vertebral artery aneurysm early allows for monitoring and may allow for treatment before rupture or stroke occurs.
