Aneurysm of the Splenic Artery

Acta Chirurgica Belgica, 1998
Splenic artery aneurysms, once considered rare entities are now being reported with increasing frequency. Due to a high incidence of fatal rupture, they are considered dangerous. Rupture is often the first and only symptom. With an increased index of suspicion and early aggressive treatment of asymptomatic splenic artery aneurysms, mortality has ...

Aneurysms of the Splenic Artery

New England Journal of Medicine, 1950
THE recognition of aneurysms of the splenic artery is important since death from spontaneous hemorrhage ultimately occurs in the majority of cases and since these aneurysms may be completely excised at an elective time without jeopardizing the blood supply of vital organs.

Hemodynamics of splenic artery aneurysm

Gastroenterology, 1986
Blood flow volume of the portal venous system of 3 patients with splenic artery aneurysm, an uncommon disease, was measured using an ultrasonic duplex system. A huge increase in splenic blood flow volume was found in each case. A large portasystemic shunt through which the portal blood flowed hepatofugally was present in 2 cases.

Aneurysm of Splenic Artery With Calcification

Archives of Surgery, 1963
Aneurysm of the splenic artery is an infrequent lesion. The diagnosis is rarely made from clinical symptoms alone. Rupture is attended by a very high mortality. However, if the lesion is diagnosed before rupture occurs, surgical treatment is usually uneventful and successful.

Aneurysm of the Splenic Artery

Archives of Surgery, 1976
Aneurysm of the splenic artery is found in up to 10% of the elderly. Usually, the lesion is discovered by change and does not produce symptoms unless rupture occurs. Although there is general agreement that surgery is required in symptomatic patients and in women of childbearing age, controversy persists as to management for the asymptomatic patient ...
