Giant celiac artery aneurysm - a rare experience.
Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England 2022 January 5
Giant celiac artery aneurysm is a rare entity. We describe a case of a 45-year-old male with chronic kidney disease who presented with abdominal pain for the past 6 months. CT showed a celiac artery aneurysm of size 6×6.2cm involving the common hepatic artery and compressing the portal vein posteriorly. During the procedure the supra celiac aorta was exposed, and the neck of the aneurysm was identified. After taking control of branches of the celiac and common hepatic arteries, the neck of the aneurysm was clamped and divided. In view of diminished flow in the hepatic arteries aorto hepatic bypass was done using PTFE graft from supra celiac aorta to right hepatic artery; as there was retrograde flow from the left hepatic artery it was ligated. Post operatively the patient's liver functions were normal, and he was followed up by Doppler sonography which detected good flow in the hepatic artery distal to anastomosis. Celiac artery aneurysms are rare, and management options vary from the endovascular to surgery; regardless of the approach used, revascularisation is needed if there is no adequate collateral flow.
