A Two-Stage Treatment of Patients with Chronic Pancreatitis Complicated by Pseudoaneurysm of the Splenic Artery: a Clinical Case
Abstract
The development of false aneurysms of visceral arteries on the background of chronic pancreatitis is a relatively rare complication, the frequency of which, according to the literature, is 1–10%. When aneurysm rupture occurs massive gastrointestinal or intra-abdominal bleeding that is clinically difficult to differentiate from other pathologies of the gastrointestinal tract. To search for the source of bleeding used ultrasound, computed tomography, angiography.
25 patients with CP complicated by FA artery of the celiac trunk and the superior mesenteric artery аor the period from 2010 to November 2016 were treated in the A.V. Vishnevsky Institute of surgery. A clinical case is presented the principles of diagnosis and treatment of chronic pancreatitis complicated by a pseudoaneurysm of the splenic artery.
