Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An aneurysm is an abnormal bulging of a weakened blood vessel that can burst and cause bleeding in the brain. This is a common cause of strokes. Blood clots and emboli can also cause strokes, but they have a different mechanism of action. "Eruption" is not a medical term and is not related to the cause of a stroke.
