Abstract:
Visceral artery aneurysm is a rare but clinically important form of vascular pathology, showing a high mortality rate in emergency surgery. Most often these aneurysms cause no symptoms and are therefore incidental findings. Reports on ileocolic artery aneurysms are rare and often anecdotal. Therapeutic procedures can be performed either surgically or by interventional therapeutic techniques. This article presents a case of ruptured ileocolic artery aneurysm and reviews the literature on this topic.
