Spleno-pancreatectomy En Bloc with Parcelar Gastrectomy for Splenic Artery Aneurysm – A Case Report and Literature Review

摘要

Splenic artery aneurysms are common arterial lesions which might remain asymptomatic for a long period of time. In certain cases, these lesions might encounter a significant growth and might become symptomatic. Once diagnosed, a therapeutic strategy should be taken in consideration in order to avoid the apparition of life-threatening complications such as aneurysmal rupture. This is a case report of a 45-year-old patient diagnosed with a splenic artery aneurysm who was successfully submitted to an aneurysmal resection en bloc with distal spleno-pancreatectomy and parcelar gastrectomy.
