Title: Hybrid repair of a hepatic artery aneurysm. Author: Yankovic W, Febrer G, Couture T, Mallios A, Koskas F. Journal: Ann Vasc Surg; 2012 May; 26(4):575.e1-3. PubMed ID: 22520395. Abstract: Visceral arterial aneurysm is a rare pathology. Currently, there are no sufficient data to support the superiority of surgical or endovascular treatment. The choice depends mainly on patient characteristics and the anatomy of the aneurysm. We present a case of a 12-cm fusiform aneurysm of the common hepatic artery. A combined approach including endovascular exclusion of the celiac trunk and surgical closure of the aneurysm was chosen. The postoperative course was uneventful. To our knowledge, this is the first case in the literature describing this combined approach.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
