Summary: | AbstractTrue aneurysm of celiac artery is a rare form of a visceral aneurysm, constituting around 4% of visceral aneurysms. Mortality in ruptured cases is high, so early recognition and treatment is crucial. Recent guidelines suggest endovascular therapy, however numerous complications are associated with endoluminal treatment. Open repair in select cases, using an individualised strategy fit for the patient’s anatomy still provides excellent early as well as long-term results. The patient was treated with open surgical resection and end-to-end anastomosis of celiac and common hepatic arteries. A 43-months follow-up Computed Tomography Angiography revealed excellent hepatic artery patency and no pseudoaneurysm formation. |
