The surgeon went on with the intent of coiling but thought the risk of rupture was greater than leaving it alone and watching it because of position. My younger sister had a large aneurysm burst and ended up with about 8o coils then later had it clipped. She later passed away from it. Mine is probably genetic. I’ve heard about a new gamma laser procedure that I’m going to look into.

@jessica79 Got you. Sorry for your loss. Interesting to find out about the laser technique.

Keep us updated! My aneurysm is in a very difficult location in my brain so looking at all options before getting a second opinion this month.
