Description

People who grow several aneurysms in the brain's arteries may fare worse when one bursts than people with a single aneurysm. Dongliang Wang and co-authors compare the two groups among patients on the Tibetan Plateau in a 2024 study.

Records of 68 patients with multiple aneurysms were matched against 68 with single ones at the regional hospital. The multiple group had more women, smokers, drinkers, and people with high blood pressure. The size of the burst aneurysm also differed between groups. Outcomes at three, six, and twelve months did not differ by group. Among the multiple group, vessel-based treatment beat watchful care, though not open surgery, in this sample.
