We present a case of splenic artery embolisation (SAE) after traumatic splenic injury that was complicated by acute necrotizing pancreatitis, caused by inadvertently extensive embolisation of the splenic artery. Although SAE is increasingly used for splenic preservation in trauma, there is insufficient knowledge on its efficacy and pitfalls. This report aims to draw attention to a rare but potentially serious complication of SAE.
我们报告一例创伤性脾损伤后行脾动脉栓塞术(SAE)的病例,该病例因意外广泛栓塞脾动脉而并发急性坏死性胰腺炎。尽管SAE在创伤性脾损伤保脾治疗中的应用越来越广泛,但对其疗效和潜在问题的认识仍不足。本报告旨在引起对SAE一种罕见但可能严重并发症的关注。
