Abstract:

Introduction: aneurysms of splenic arteries have a fairly high prevalence in relation to the total number of all visceral aneurysms. According to modern clinical guidelines, both symptomatic and asymptomatic aneurysms are subject to treatment. Recently, the priority direction in treatment of visceral aneurysms is endovascular surgery, which is characterized by minimal invasiveness and high efficiency, which makes it possible to consider transcatheter endovascular embolization of splenic artery aneurysms as the preferred method of treatment.

Aim: was to estimate the role and possibilities of endovascular methods of treatment in a patient with a false aneurysm of splenic artery (ASA) formed after pancreatic necrosis and complicated by gastrointestinal bleeding.

Materials and methods: a case report of transcatheter embolization of splenic artery aneurysm using the «front-to-back-door» technique using coils and telescopic system, is presented.

Results: patient was discharged on the 3rd day after embolization. The postoperative period proceeded calmly, there was no abdominal pain, indicators of clinical and biochemical blood tests were within acceptable limits.

Conclusions: studies devoted to treatment of giant aneurysms of splenic artery are not described in the modern literature, there are only few reports. Treatment of this type of ASA can lead to an increase in the cost of procedure, but minimal invasiveness, technical success, almost no deaths and early activation of patients make it possible to consider transcatheter endovascular embolization as the only possible method of treatment.
