Salvage Surgeries for Splanchnic Artery Aneurysms After Failed Endovascular Therapies: Cases Series

Completed

• Conditions: Failure in Endovascular Therapy; Splanchnic Aneurysm; Surgery; Mass Effect

• Registration Number: NCT05727956
• Lead Sponsor: China Medical University Hospital

Brief Summary

A retrospective review was performed for consecutive patients (from 2019 to 2021) who underwent salvage surgeries following failed endovascular therapies for splanchnic artery aneurysms in a tertiary referral center. Salvage operations include total aneurysmectomy with vascular reconstruction and partial aneurysmectomy with directly closing bleeders from the intraluminal space of the aneurysms.

Detailed Description

Salvage surgery for splanchnic artery aneurysm after failed endovascular trials includes one of the following three strategies: (1) aneurysmectomy along with the involved organ if the aneurysm is located within the parenchyma of solid organs (2) aneurysmectomy with vascular reconstruction if the aneurysm outside the solid organ (3)partial aneurysmectomy with direct closing the feeding vessel orifice if the aneurysm occurs in the hostile abdomen.
