An aneurysm is a weakening in the wall of a blood vessel. This causes the blood to pool and push against the weak spot as it flows through the vessel, developing the ballooning or blossoming effect on the side of the vessel. This is very dangerous, the larger and faster the ballooning, the more dangerous. The vessel becomes weaken and brittle at the stretched point, and you do not want it to rupture, especially if it is in a vital area. There are several ways to fix an aneurysm, depending on where is it and how big it has gotten. I know that the basilar artery is located at or near the base of the skull, But that still leaves alot details out. That's the best I can do with the info, you gave and requested. This is a very fearful thing, but most can be handled with quick action, and proper care.
