Aneurysm of the Anomalous Splenic Artery Arising from Superior Mesenteric Artery Treated by Coil Embolization: A Report of Two Cases and Literature Review
Background: Aneurysm of splenic artery (SA) which arises from the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) is a very rare condition. The aim of this study was to present our experience with 2 such patients treated by coil embolization. Methods: A 33-year-old man and a 61-year-old woman were incidentally identified with aneurysms of the SA which arose from the SMA. Endovascular therapy of coil embolization was chosen to treat the aneurysm. Results: Follow-up computed tomography showed no change in the location of the coils and occlusion of majority of the aneurysm sac. The 2 patients have been doing well during a 26-month and 10-month follow-up period, respectively. Conclusions: Combined with the experience of the previous literature, we think coil embolization can be cost-effective and minimally invasive in selected cases, depending on the morphology and site of the lesion.
