We usually donât know why an aneurysm bleeds or exactly when it will bleed. We do know what increases the chance for bleeding: High blood pressure is the leading cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Heavy lifting or straining can cause pressure to rise in the brain and may lead to an aneurysm rupture. Strong emotions, such as being upset or angry, can raise blood pressure and can subsequently cause aneurysms to rupture.
Inherited risk factors associated with brain aneurysm formation include: 1  Alpha-glucosidase deficiency: A complete or partial deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme, alpha-glucosidase. This enzyme is necessary to break down glycogen and to convert it into glucose.
