Intracranial aneurysms (IA) are local dilatations in cerebral arteries that predominantly affect
the circle of Willis. Occurring in approximately 2–5% of adults, these weakened areas are …

Subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) is a subtype of stroke caused by the rupture of an
intracranial aneurysm. Genetic factors play an important part in the pathogenesis of SAH …

Stroke is the world's third leading cause of death. One cause of stroke, intracranial

Intracranial aneurysms, also called cerebral aneurysms, are dilatations in the arteries that
supply blood to the brain. Rupture of an intracranial aneurysm leads to a subarachnoid …

Background and Purpose—Genetic determinants probably play a role in the development of
intracranial aneurysms. We review the present knowledge on this issue. Methods—This …
