Incidentally detected asymptomatic splenic artery aneurysm
Splenic artery aneurysm (SpAA) is the most common among visceral artery aneurysms and accounts for approximately 60% of visceral artery aneurysms. Generally, 80% of cases with SpAA are asymptomatic. The most common symptoms are abdominal pain, nausea and intra-abdominal bleeding due to aneurysm rupt...

description | Splenic artery aneurysm (SpAA) is the most common among visceral artery aneurysms and accounts for approximately 60% of visceral artery aneurysms. Generally, 80% of cases with SpAA are asymptomatic. The most common symptoms are abdominal pain, nausea and intra-abdominal bleeding due to aneurysm rupture, hypotension and hemorrhagic shock. The most serious complication is aneurysm rupture and related complications. The most useful method for diagnosis is abdominal CT angiographic imaging. The treatment is mostly surgical, but in appropriate cases, endovascular intervention can also be applied. Medical follow-up can be performed in true splenic artery aneurysms less than 2 cm in diameter. In this article, we wanted to present a fifty-two-year-old female patient with an asymptomatic splenic artery aneurysm that was detected incidentally. [Turk J Vasc Surg 2024; 33(2.000): 112-4] |
