Kim Kardashian has revealed a startling health scare that had been silently developing for years. In a recent episode of The Kardashians, the SKIMS founder shared that a routine Prenuvo scan uncovered a brain aneurysm, which doctors believe had been present for several years without detection.
Speaking to her sister Kourtney, Kim Kardashian said, “I did a Prenuvo scan, and they called me saying, ‘Everything looks great. But you have an aneurysm in your brain. It’s been there for like years.’”
Alarmed by the findings, she immediately consulted renowned brain surgeon Dr. Keith Black, who recommended further imaging. Kim admitted she initially considered waiting, asking, “Can I wait? ‘Cause what makes it rupture?’ They said, ‘Just stress.’”

At the time of the discovery, Kim was under immense pressure, preparing for the bar exam and studying up to 10 hours a day. Kourtney expressed her concern, noting, “She has so much going on between work and four kids. I don’t want her to have an aneurysm, of course.”
Prenuvo scans, which are full-body MRIs, are designed to detect hidden health issues early.
Kim first revealed the aneurysm in the season 7 premiere of The Kardashians and later updated viewers during a segment on Good Morning America.
No further updates on her condition have been shared since.
