Project Description
An intracranial saccular aneurysm occurs when the vessel wall is weakened and bulged outward. When an aneurysm ruptures, it can cause subarachnoid hemorrhage which leads to devastating damage to brain tissue. Throughout the development of an aneurysm, pathological changes occur at both the macro- and cellular scales. In this editorial, pathological changes over time are shown side by side to better demonstrate the nature of the illness and its severe impact on brain tissue.
