    A gunshot wound caused a superior mesenteric artery aneurysm that bled into the duodenum. Successful reconstruction required multiple attempts, highlighting the need for immediate arterial repair.

    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Trauma Surgery
    • Gastrointestinal Surgery

    Background:

    • Superior mesenteric artery aneurysms can result from penetrating trauma.
    • Delayed diagnosis and treatment of arterial injuries increase complication risks.

    Observation:

    • A patient presented with a false aneurysm of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) five years after a gunshot wound.
    • Initial surgical repair controlled gastrointestinal bleeding, but the aneurysm recurred, leading to retroperitoneal hemorrhage.

    Findings:

    • Multiple reconstructive procedures were necessary for the SMA aneurysm.
    • An autologous saphenous vein graft ultimately provided a successful arterial reconstruction.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the critical importance of immediate and adequate surgical reconstruction for arterial injuries.
