unruptured

Not yet burst

Unruptured means not having burst or broken open.

The term appears most often in medical contexts, describing something that remains intact: an unruptured aneurysm, an unruptured cyst.

The prefix signals that the dangerous event—the rupture—hasn't occurred yet, often implying it still could.
