Giant Splenic Artery Aneurysm

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 1993
Giant aneurysms of the splenic artery are uncommon. The mean size of splenic artery aneurysms is reported to be 2.1 cm; they are rarely larger than 3 cm. We present two cases in which the splenic artery aneurysm was larger than 8 cm, discuss the management and operative approach to these infrequently encountered entities, and provide a brief review of ...

Splenic Artery Tortuosity Simulating a Splenic Artery Aneurysm

Southern Medical Journal, 1998
Splenic artery aneurysms (SAAs) are most commonly identified on x-ray film by the presence of concentric calcifications in the left-upper abdominal quadrant. Not all calcifications are SAAs. In patients with suspicious left-upper abdominal quadrant calcifications, definitive imaging is necessary to confirm the diagnosis of SAA.

Rupture of Splenic Artery Aneurysm

The American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology, 1992
Three cases of death from splenic artery aneurysm rupture were encountered from 1988 to 1991 at the Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office. In two cases, cocaine was detected in the blood and was believed to have precipitated the rupture. Toxicologic testing for cocaine should be performed in all cases of splenic artery aneurysm rupture and its ...

Ruptured aneurysm of the splenic artery

The American Journal of Surgery, 1958
Abstract 1. 1. Aneurysm of the splenic artery is not common. When rupture occurs it is usually fatal unless aggressive surgical treatment is promptly initiated. 2. 2. The diagnosis before rupture is very difficult unless the lesion is kept in mind and a pulsating mass is palpable or the aneurysm is demonstrable roentgenologically. Rupture may
