How many aneurysms can a person have

My husband’s cousin had a dissected ascending aortic aneurysm now he has a descending aortic aneurysm and two abdominal aneurysms.

I had one on the mid ascending aorta into the root. I also had a large one on the right coronary artery (RCA) near the Conus branch. They repaired the RCA and some other issues and the root ruptured and the replaced my root, valve and put in a graft. The remaining native ascending aorta still has a 4.6cm aneurysm from the graft to close to the aortic arch. I also had a dilated bronchial artery to the pulmonary artery that was torturous. They occluded it with 12 platinum coils. The coils were done via catheter 6 days before I had open heart surgery because they wouldn't be able to access the aberrant bronchial artery during surgery.

tsktsk0, I read a report of one person who had 14 in their brain alone, unusual though. 6 might be the max average though only a small percentage 1-2% of those rupture.

Hello. I had a brain aneurysm on the MCA addressed last year via brain clipping (craniotomy). I recently found out that I have a small 4.1 cm aortic aneurysm on the ascending. So two for me.

Unfortunately, I have 4 ( 3 have been operated on) but still have the ascending aortic being monitored .

My brother, age 80, has recently been told he has a 3rd aneurysm. The first one appeared when he was in his 50's and the 2nd in his early 70's. I am 79 and have just recently (a few months ago) been diagnosed with my first one. It is a 3.4 and they are telling me I most likely won't need surgery in my lifetime. Our mother was the first in the family to ever hear the word "aneurysm." Hers ruptured while she was in a Braums having a frozen sherbert. No warning. She died 4 hours later in the hospital. Since then, one of her brothers also died following the surgery for an aneurysm. He was 85. Obviously, aneurysms are genetic in my mother's family. I doubt there is a limit to how many a person can have over a lifetime. The problem is they are often not diagnosed until it's too late. I am hoping and praying none of my 5 adult children or 16 grandchildren will develop this condition. However, I think it is likely someone will.
