Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Urology
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Hypogastric artery aneurysms (HAAs) are uncommon vascular pathologies.
  • Most HAAs are asymptomatic and found incidentally during imaging.
  • Potential complications include urinary symptoms and spontaneous rupture.

Observation:

  • This report details a rare case of an isolated HAA.
  • The patient presented with painless microscopic hematuria.
  • No other urinary symptoms or signs of rupture were noted.

Findings:

  • Microscopic hematuria can be an isolated presenting symptom of hypogastric artery aneurysms.
  • The diagnosis was confirmed via imaging studies.
  • The aneurysm was successfully managed, though specific treatment details are beyond this summary.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of considering HAA in the differential diagnosis of unexplained hematuria.
  • Underscores the need for thorough vascular evaluation in patients with incidental findings.
  • Informs clinical decision-making regarding the management of rare arterial aneurysms.
