Reviewing a proposed procedure with your chosen doctor
Brain Aneurysm Treatment
second opinion in Mumbai.
Medical term: Microsurgical clipping or endovascular aneurysm treatment
Already chosen your neurosurgeon or interventional neuroradiologist in Mumbai or Navi Mumbai to review your proposed brain aneurysm treatment? When you cannot attend yourself, Redwood organises your existing records and questions, takes the case to that doctor and shares their recommendations.
You choose the doctor. We take your case to them.
Understand the procedure
What is brain aneurysm treatment?
A brain aneurysm is a weakened, bulging area of a brain artery. Treatment may seal it with a surgical clip or an endovascular device such as coils. Monitoring is considered in some unruptured cases; a ruptured aneurysm is a different, urgent situation.
This is general procedure information. Your chosen doctor assesses what applies to you.

Questions for your chosen doctor
Choose the questions that matter to your situation. We record them in your own words and take them to the consultation.
- What features of my aneurysm support treatment rather than monitoring?
- Why is clipping, coiling or another device favoured for its location and shape?
- What are the main stroke or bleeding risks in my case?
- What medicines and repeat imaging would the proposed treatment require?
Your existing case file
Records to organise
We organise the ct angiography, mr angiography or catheter angiogram reports and images alongside your treatment history and the written procedure recommendation. We note what you want the neurosurgeon or interventional neuroradiologist to clarify and keep the original reports available for the consultation.
Share the records you already have. This is a document checklist, not a request for new tests.
Bring together what is available
- CT angiography, MR angiography or catheter angiogram reports and images
- Records of any bleeding, stroke or previous aneurysm treatment
- Neurological assessment and relevant family history already recorded
- Current prescriptions and the proposed procedure details
- Your written procedure recommendation, current prescriptions and allergy details
When you cannot attend yourself
How Redwood takes your case to your doctor
- Tell us whom you have chosen. Share the doctor’s name, hospital or clinic, and the decision you want reviewed.
- Prepare the case with us. We organise your existing records, treatment timeline and questions, then coordinate the appointment.
- We attend with your case. Your Care Steward takes the organised brain aneurysm treatment case file to the neurosurgeon or interventional neuroradiologist you selected and puts forward your recorded questions. After the consultation, we share the doctor's recommendations and consultation documents with you.
A video call during the consultation can be arranged if the doctor allows.
We respond within 12 hours of your enquiry.
