Risk Analysis of Treatment of Unruptured Aneurysms
JNNP 68:577-580, Mitchell,P.&Jakubowski,J., 2000
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Clipping of unruptured aneurysms under 10 mm in diameter with no history of subarachnoid haemorrhage is not justified on actuarial grounds. Intervention in other unruptured aneurysms produces benefits in life expectancy up to the age of 50. There may be subgroups of aneurysms in which larger benefits exist.
