- W4387608963 abstract "Aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms of the visceral arteries are a rare pathology with a prevalence of 0.1-2% in the general population, most common in men. Despite low prevalence, visceral aneurysms pose a significant threat to the patient's health and life; a ruptured superior mesenteric branch aneurysm carries mortality rates of 10-25% and up to 30-90%. This article presents a case of a 50-year-old former active duty soldier and veteran of a military combat mission in Afghanistan, during which he sustained a traumatic injury resulting from a mine explosion under a vehicle. After completing the mission and returning home, the patient developed abdominal pain. The diagnosis made in the general surgery department of the district hospital was upper gastrointestinal obstruction and aneurysmal rupture of the superior mesenteric branch with inflammatory infiltration of the pancreatic-intestinal area. The patient underwent emergency gastrointestinal anastomosis and Braun enteroenterostomy. The aneurysm was not resected. One month later, the patient underwent a follow-up abdominal angiotomography, which revealed an approximately 20-mm aneurysm of a branch of the superior mesenteric artery and celiac artery subocclusion (Dunbar syndrome) with extensive collateral circulation. A diagnosis of pseudoaneurysm/traumatic aneurysm was made, and the patient was referred to a vascular surgery center for endovascular treatment. Following CT angiography, a decision was made to perform a two-stage endovascular repair. The first stage was a bridge therapy aimed to release celiac artery subocclusion with a stent; after 3 weeks, pseudoaneurysm embolization was performed. The decision to use two-stage endovascular treatment was attributable to the risk of gastrointestinal ischemia that might result from intraoperative technical difficulties and complications, coil dislocation, and thrombosis of the superior mesenteric artery or its branch; the coexisting subocclusion of the celiac artery was also considered. The patient was discharged in good condition and returned to normal everyday activities. He also continued follow-up appointments with a vascular surgeon. An angiotomography performed at 1 year of endovascular treatment confirmed good effects of the embolization procedure and coagulation of the aneurysm. Visceral aneurysms are a rare vascular pathology but are associated with significant morbidity and mortality rates. The incidence of ruptured aneurysms is probably underestimated as some patients may be operated on for acute abdominal symptoms, e.g., bowel obstruction." @default.
