Congenital Aneurysm Treatment in India
About Congenital Aneurysm
Key Highlights
-
Prevents life-threatening rupture and internal bleeding.Can be performed using minimally invasive endovascular techniques for faster recovery in select cases.Addresses a structural defect to restore normal blood flow and vessel integrity.Tailored surgical approach based on precise imaging (CTA, MRA) for optimal planning.Performed by specialized vascular or neurovascular surgeons with expertise in complex congenital conditions.
Who is this surgery for?
- Detection of a congenital aneurysm that is growing in size on serial imaging.
- Aneurysm size exceeding a critical threshold (e.g., >5.5 cm for abdominal aorta, specific sizes for cerebral based on location).
- Presence of symptoms such as pain, throbbing sensation, or neurological deficits.
- High-risk morphology (e.g., irregular shape, daughter sacs) indicating increased rupture risk.
- Family history of aneurysm rupture or connective tissue disorders like Marfan or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.
How to prepare
- Comprehensive imaging studies (CT Angiography, MR Angiography) to map the aneurysm's exact size, shape, and location.
- Complete cardiac and pulmonary evaluation to assess fitness for surgery.
- Blood tests and coagulation profile to manage bleeding risk.
- Discussion of surgical options (open vs. endovascular), risks, and benefits with the surgical team.
- Pre-operative instructions including fasting, medication adjustments (especially blood thinners), and hygiene protocols.
Risks & possible complications
- Bleeding, infection, or blood clot formation at the surgical site.
- Damage to nearby nerves or organs during dissection.
- Stroke or paralysis (particularly relevant for cerebral aneurysm repair).
- Graft infection, leakage, or displacement in endovascular repairs.
- Kidney injury from contrast dye used in imaging or endovascular procedures.
- Risk of aneurysm recurrence or need for future re-intervention.
Recovery & hospital stay
- Initial monitoring in an intensive care unit (ICU) or high-dependency unit post-surgery.
- Pain management and careful monitoring of vital signs and neurological status.
- Gradual mobilization to prevent blood clots and promote circulation.
- Adherence to wound care instructions and watching for signs of infection.
- Lifestyle modifications including blood pressure control, smoking cessation, and avoiding heavy lifting.
- Regular follow-up imaging (CT/MRI scans) to monitor the repair site and ensure long-term success.
-
Typical hospital stay:
5-10 days
-
Expected recovery time:
6-12 weeks

Ananya Nair, a 28-year-old software engineer,...
Ananya Nair, a 28-year-old software engineer, had always been active and healthy. Her diagnosis came as a complete shock during a routine check-up for persistent, mild headaches. A brain MRI, ordered out of an abundance of caution, revealed a small, berry-like congenital aneurysm in her anterior communicating artery. Though asymptomatic beyond the headaches, the vascular surgeon explained the silent risk of rupture. He recommended a minimally invasive endovascular coiling procedure to eliminate the threat, describing it as 'preventive maintenance for your most important wiring.' Ananya was terrified, grappling with the idea of a 'ticking time bomb' in her head. The procedure itself was smooth; she was under general anesthesia for a few hours. Recovery involved a short hospital stay with careful monitoring for any complications. A follow-up angiogram showed the aneurysm was successfully occluded. Emotionally, Ananya transitioned from initial fear and vulnerability to profound relief and a renewed appreciation for her health. She now advocates for listening to subtle bodily cues and proactive care.
