Abstract
Unruptured intracranial aneurysms are common. Rupture is rare, but associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Screening for unruptured intracranial aneurysms is indicated in certain patient populations, but many patients request screening outside of established guidelines. In addition, intracranial aneurysms may be discovered incidentally. The presence of an intracranial aneurysm has a negative effect for the patient seeking life insurance. This commentary provides a perspective on insurance underwriting in individuals with unruptured intracranial aneurysms and offers points for clinicians to consider when counseling patients seeking screening.
