It is estimated that six million people in the USA have an unruptured brain aneurysm - that's one in 50 people.
The annual rate of rupture is approximately 8 - 10 per 100,000 - that is one every 18 minutes. They are fatal in about 40% of cases.
Of those who survive, about 66% suffer permanent neurological deficit. Approximately 15% of patients die before reaching the hospital.
