A 22 year old female with a history of recurrent abdominal pain was transferred to our institution with a diagnosis of splenic artery aneurysm identified on imaging. CT angiography of the abdomen and pelvis revealed a partially thrombosed 3.0 cm splenic artery aneurysm without signs of rupture and with an anomalous origin from the superior mesenteric artery. The patient was successfully treated with endovascular exclusion of the aneurysm. Herein we review some of the nuances of endovascular repair of splenic artery aneurysm.

Abdominal pain and vomiting are frequently encountered in the emergency department. We report a 54-year-old man with an uncommon cause of intestinal obstruction – superior mesenteric artery syndrome – who presented with epigastric pain and vomiting. Diagnosis is clinical with radiological confirmation by upper gastrointestinal series or computed tomography scan. Most patients respond to conservative and supportive treatment. A minority may need surgical intervention.
