Summary
We report a rare case of celiac artery aneurysm successfully treated with coil embolization. This approach offers a viable, single-session treatment option for complex aneurysms, ensuring good long-term outcomes.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Interventional Radiology
Background:
- Celiac artery aneurysms are rare vascular malformations.
- Treatment options for celiac artery aneurysms include open surgical repair and endovascular embolization.
Observation:
- A case of a complex and unusual celiac artery aneurysm is presented.
- The aneurysm was successfully treated using embolization coil occlusion in a single session.
Findings:
- Embolization coil occlusion is an effective treatment for celiac artery aneurysms.
- This minimally invasive technique provides a good long-term outcome.
Implications:
- Highlights the technical and clinical details of managing complex celiac artery aneurysms.
- Supports endovascular embolization as a primary treatment modality for selected cases.
- Offers a valuable reference for clinicians managing rare vascular pathologies.
