Transcatheter Coil Embolization of an Arc of Buhler Aneurysm
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the findings of a patient with an asymptomatic Arc of Buhler (AOB) aneurysm, which was successfully treated by transcatheter coil embolization. An abdominal CT and angiography revealed an intact pancreaticoduodenal artery arcade (PDAA) and an anomalous communication between the SMA and celiac axis, termed an AOB. An aneurysm was observed at the origin of the AOB and treated with a transcatheter embolization using coils. A follow-up CT imaging confirmed the total occlusion of the aneurysm with a patent PDAA. The successful results of this treatment suggest that the endovascular therapy of an AOB aneurysm with a celiac axis occlusion and an intact PDAA is feasible and safe.

Successful Coil Embolization of an Aneurysm in the Arc of Bühler.
In the present report, we describe a case of a patient with an asymptomatic aneurysm in the arc of Bühler (AOB), which was successfully treated by transcatheter arterial embolization. The patient presented with severe stenosis of the celiac trunk, which was suspected to be due to median arcuate ligament syndrome. Arteriography of the superior mesenteric artery indicated a rapid stream in an ane...

Hepatic artery aneurysm is a rare and potentially life-threatening entity. We report a case of ruptured common hepatic artery aneurysm in a patient with Behçet's disease. The ruptured aneurysm was treated successfully with transcatheter arterial coil embolization. Transcatheter arterial embolization is the preferred treatment modality in patients at high risk of surgical intervention.

Coronary artery fistulae (CAF) represent the most frequent congenital anomalies influencing hemodynamic parameters of coronary arteries. However, CAF complicated with a huge aneurysm does not frequently occur. Determining the optimal management of symptomatic patients with CAF and aneurysm still remains a challenging problem, and has been traditionally considered as an indication for cardiac su...
متن کاملEndovascular treatment of ectopic bronchial artery aneurysm with brachiocephalic artery stent placement and coil embolization
BACKGROUND Bronchial artery aneurysm (BAA) is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening disease, and multiple BAAs are even rarer. Clinically, the tortuous and short neck of a BAA may present significant challenges for invasive intervention. METHODS This report describes the detailed process of diagnosis and treatment and includes a literature review of the etiology, clinical presentation,...
متن کاملCoil Embolization of a Giant Renal Artery Aneurysm
Renal artery aneurysms (RAAs) are rare but harbor serious consequences if they rupture. When determining if a RAA should be treated, physicians consider aneurysm size as it pertains to the likelihood of rupture. Giant RAAs have rarely been reported in the literature and have usually been managed by open aneurysmectomy and nephrectomy. In the present case, we report a 63year-old male incidentall...
