Isolated celiac artery aneurysm: A case report

Introduction: Abdominal pain is a common complaint seen in the emergency department (ED). We report a case of celiac artery aneurysm (CAA) in a male patient presenting with abdominal pain to the ED on two separate occasions, approximately 24 hours apart. Case Report: On the initial visit the patient was discharged with undifferentiated abdominal pain after computed tomography imaging and laboratory investigations. On the repeat visit he was found to have a rapidly expanding CAA with rupture. He became unstable requiring intubation, blood transfusions, and emergent transfer to a tertiary care center for surgical management where, unfortunately, he died hours after failed operative management. Conclusion: Although rare, abdominal pain caused by CAAs can rapidly progress to rupture and have a high mortality.

Pancreatic Artery

The dorsal pancreatic artery is a part of peripancreatic arcade connecting celiac artery to transpancreatic artery. A dorsal pancreatic artery aneurysm derived from dissection of celiac artery is a rare pathology, and it sometimes requires ingenious strategy in an endovascular surgery. Hereby, we report a case of a patient who underwent coil embolization for dorsal pancreatic artery aneurysm due to celiac artery dissection by applying transcirculation approach of a balloon catheter through the peripancreatic arcade, which was successfully achieved.
