What are the risks and benefits of screening for cerebral aneurysm in patients with a first-degree relative dying of cerebral aneurysm?
Abstract
What are the risks and benefits of screening
for cerebral aneurysm in patients with a firstdegree
relative dying of cerebral aneurysm? Evidence-based answer : Patients with first-degree relatives who died from a
cerebral aneurysm have an increased risk for cerebral
aneurysm. However, whether screening should be
done is unclear because a full understanding of the
risks and benefits of early intervention is lacking (no
SOR given).
