Summary: | Hepatic Artery Aneurysm (HAA) is a rare disease, but it can be a life-threatening pathology if it is ruptured. Multi-Detector Computed Tomography has to be considered the “gold standard” diagnostic imaging in detecting HAA and it is essential for treatment planning. Treatment for HAA can be surgical or endovascular. Endovascular approaches in HAA, compare to conventional abdominal surgery, benefit in less invasive treatments. The aim of our paper is to emphasize the three possible endovascular therapeutic techniques in HAA: packing embolization, isolation embolization and stenting deployment. |
