Raising Money for Brain Aneurysm Awareness

Episode 500

Brain aneurysms are often called ‘silent killers’ because they typically show no symptoms until they burst, leading to life-threatening conditions. It’s estimated that about 6 million people in the United States have an unruptured brain aneurysm, and every 18 minutes, a brain aneurysm ruptures.

Today, we are joined by two remarkable individuals who are deeply involved in raising awareness and advocating for the prevention and support of brain aneurysms. Erin Kreszl, the Executive Director of The Bee Foundation, and Tricia Scobey, a survivor of a life-changing brain aneurysm and the race director of the run series, which raises money for the Bee Foundation.

Brain Aneurysms Explained By Dr. Christopher Kellner

Episode 502

According to the Bee Foundation for Brain Aneurysm Awareness, an estimated 1 in every 50 people has an unruptured brain aneurysm. One of these aneurysms ruptures every 18 minutes. Ruptured brain aneurysms are fatal in about 40% of cases. Of those who survive, about 66% will suffer some permanent deficit.

Another startling statistic is there are almost 500,000 deaths worldwide each year caused by brain aneurysms, and half the victims are younger than 50. This month is Brain Aneurysm Awareness.

In this episode of Hilary Topper on Air, I interview Dr. Christopher Kellner, a fantastic neurosurgeon at Mount Sinai Health System Department of Neurosurgery. Full disclosure: Dr. Kellner was my neurosurgeon after discovering an unruptured aneurysm in the back of my head. And he did an amazing job. At my last angiogram, 95% of the aneurysm was gone. So I am truly grateful to him.
