Intracranial aneurysms: a game of millimeters

Academic Radiology
Ian AmberPaolo Nucifora

Abstract

In this review we will discuss the historic development of intracranial aneurysms as a pathologic entity and the potential for overdiagnosis. We conducted a literature search to assess the prevalence, rupture rate, and treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Intracranial aneurysms represent a necessary example of overdiagnosis. A change in the nomenclature of small aneurysms is a possible solution to mitigate patient anxiety from a diagnosis of intracranial aneurysm.
