The chronological development and natural history of cerebral aneurysms (CAs) remain incompletely understood. We used (14)C birth dating of a main constituent of CAs, that is, collagen type I, as an indicator for biosynthesis and turnover of collagen in CAs in relation to human cerebral arteries to investigate this further.
