Which Unruptured Cerebral Aneurysms Should be Treated? A Cost-Utility Analysis
Neurol 52:1806-1815, Johnston,S.C.,et al, 1999
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Treatment of small, asymptomatic, unruptured cerebral aneurysms in patients without a history of SAH worsens clinical outcomes, and thus is neither effective nor cost-effective. For aneurysms that are >/= 10 mm or symptomatic, or in patien ts with a history of SAH, treatment appears to be cost-effective.
