摘要
Visceral artery aneurysm (VAA) is very rare among vascular pathologies. Incidence reported in autopsy series and angiographic studies varies between 0.1% and 0.2%. Most cases are asymptomatic and are diagnosed as result of complications, or incidentally, when imaging is performed for another reason.Three percent ofVAAs are superior mesenteric artery (SMA) terminal branch aneurysms. Intra-and/or extraperitoneal bleeding due to ruptured aneurysm is life-threatening condition and requires emergent intervention. Therefore, surgical or endovascular interventional treatment must be performed rapidly after diagnosis. Presently described is case of ileocolic artery aneurysm in a patient admitted with abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Endovascular intervention had been planned; however, during hospitalization, aneurysm ruptured and emergent surgery was performed. Review of the literature is also presented.
