Loeys-Dietz syndrome is a condition that predisposes the development of central and peripheral arterial aneurysms and dissections. The standard approach for treatment of these lesions has been open repair. We present the case of a 34-year-old woman with a previous history of multiple open aortic repairs who presented with a right large internal mammary artery aneurysm. The patient was successfully treated with endovascular coil embolization. This case report demonstrates the feasibility of using endovascular interventions to treat unusual aneurysms in patients with Loeys-Dietz syndrome.
Loeys-Dietz 综合征是一种易导致中枢和外周动脉动脉瘤和夹层形成的疾病。这些病变的标准治疗方法是开放修复。我们报告了一例 34 岁的女性患者，她曾多次接受开放性主动脉修复术，现出现右侧大乳内动脉动脉瘤。该患者成功接受了血管内线圈栓塞治疗。本病例报告证明了血管内介入治疗 Loeys-Dietz 综合征患者罕见动脉瘤的可行性。
