  • Title: [Selective embolization of ruptured mycotic aneurysm of the duodeno-pancreatic arcade disclosing infectious endocarditis].
    Author: Staat P, Mohammedi I, Rabatel F, Duperret S, Vedrinne JM, Motin J.
    Journal: Arch Mal Coeur Vaiss; 1996 Nov; 89(11):1431-5. PubMed ID: 9092403.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case of rupture of a mycotic aneurysm of the duodenal pancreatic arcade in a 68 year old man presenting with shock, abdominal pain and rigidity, complicating a case of infectious endocarditis. Emergency treatment consisted of selective embolisation with a coil. This treatment, proposed in view of the clinical condition of the patient and the anatomical particularity of the regional arterial vascularisation, may be a valuable alternative to classical surgery in this type of pathology.
