Dr. Dre a week after being rushed to hospital after having a brain aneurysm, he is still in intensive care, and doctors are still trying to determine what happened.
Sources connected to Dre with direct knowledge tell TMZ … Dre is where he has been since last Monday – in the ICU at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in LA. Our sources say doctors are continuing to do a number of tests to reach the root problem. Doctors also want him in the ICU, if he suffers another aneurysm, … but if that happened, time would be of the essence.

We do not know if Dre underwent surgery, but it is usually the case to stop bleeding.
As for his current condition … the music legend rests comfortably, and perhaps even more encouragingly, according to our sources, doctors cautiously informed his family that a ‘bad outcome’ apparently was not imminent.
TMZ broke the story … Dre suffered from aneurysm Monday in his Pacific Palisades home and was rushed by ambulance to Cedars.
If things stay that way, Dre is truly happy – brain aneurysms lead to death about 50% of the time, and for those who survive … about 2/3 have a permanent neurological deficiency.
