  • Title: Aneurysm of the inferior mesenteric artery.
    Author: Schaefer HC, McCoy S, Lin PY, Yang DC, Sawyer PN.
    Journal: J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino); 1980; 21(1):41-4. PubMed ID: 7358781.
    Abstract:
    Current diagnostic techniques make it possible to diagnose unsuspected aneurysms. Two unsuspected cases of aneurysms of the inferior mesenteric artery are reported. One was iatrogenic and represented a false aneurysm of the proximal end of the inferior mesenteric artery following resection of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The second was an aneurysm of the proximal protion of the inferior mesenteric artery in a patient with occlusion of the celiac axis, superior mesenteric artery and left ileofemoral system. The authors believe this to be the first published aneurysm of the inferior mesenteric artery.
