pathophysiological mechanisms that cause intracranial aneurysm rupture and helps to …

Background and Purpose—Prediction of the risk of rupture of unruptured intracranial
aneurysms is mainly based on aneurysm size and location. Previous studies identified …

Background and Purpose—The natural history of unruptured intracranial aneurysms
remains unclear, and management strategy is not well defined. Methods—From January …

Background and purpose The purpose of this study was to identify the risk factors
predisposing to aneurysm rupture and to provide a reliable estimation for likelihood of …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The presence of predicting the rupture risk of intracranial
aneurysms has recently generated considerable controversy. We retrospectively …

Background and Purpose—Three percent of the population has an unruptured intracranial
aneurysm (UIA). We aimed to identify independent risk factors from lifestyle and medical …

This study analyzed the rupture risk of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) according to aneurysm
characteristics by comparing the differences between two aneurysms in different locations …

Female gender, age above 60 years, and an aneurysm larger than 5 mm or location on the
posterior circulation are associated with a higher rupture risk of intracranial aneurysms. We …
