About This Community:

WELCOME TO ANEURYSM THE COMMUNITY: This Patient-To-Patient Community is for discussions relating to Brain Aneurysms which is a weak or thin spot on a blood vessel in the brain that balloons out and fills with blood. The bulging aneurysm can put pressure on a nerve or surrounding brain tissue. It may also leak or rupture, spilling blood into the surrounding tissue (called a hemorrhage). Some cerebral aneurysms, particularly those that are very small, do not bleed or cause other problems. Cerebral aneurysms can occur anywhere in the brain, but most are located along a loop of arteries that run between the underside of the brain and the base of the skull.

query on temporal horn

my dad's CT scan report showed an impression: "left temporal horn is prominent with reduced cortical thickness and prominence of sulcal spaces in left temporoparietal regions. suggestive of gliotic changes with lacunar infarct on both sides in frontoparietal, occipital region and centrum semiovale".
could anyone please explain what does this mean and how serious it is..??
