In light of the revelations that “Game of Thrones” star Emilia Clarke has suffered multiple brain aneurysms, Alexander Khalessi, MD, chair of the Department of Neurosurgery at UC San Diego Health and chief of the Division of Neurosurgery in the Department of Surgery at University of California San Diego School of Medicine, is available to speak about the health implications of aneurysms and available treatment options.

Khalessi is an accomplished neurosurgeon and an active clinical leader in complex neurovascular and oncologic care. He is renowned internationally for deploying unique surgical and catheter-based procedures for aneurysm and hemorrhage — a condition in which bleeding occurs in either the brain or the surrounding skull, and which Clarke herself has suffered twice.
