Splenic artery aneurysms are extremely rare lesions. Elective repair of these aneurysms is justified only if the aneurysm's size is greater than 2 cm and the predicted peri-operative mortality is below 0.5%. Percutaneous techniques minimise the peri-operative morbidity and mortality rates and offer a safe and effective treatment option. We report a coil-embolisation of a 5.1 cm splenic artery aneurysm and a short review of the literature concerning the endovascular treatment options.
脾动脉瘤是极其罕见的病变。只有当动脉瘤直径大于2 cm且预计围手术期死亡率低于0.5%时,才适合对这些动脉瘤进行择期修复。经皮技术可将围手术期发病率和死亡率降至最低,并提供一种安全有效的治疗选择。我们报告了一例5.1 cm脾动脉瘤的线圈栓塞术,并对有关血管内治疗选择的文献进行了简要回顾。
