Abstract

{Figure 1} A total of 285 cases underwent endovascular intervention treatment, 21 cases were pseudoaneurysms, and 264 were true aneurysms located in the middle and distal segment of the splenic artery. [...]41 cases underwent traditional surgery, 11 cases were at the initial segment of the splenic artery, 6 were giant aneurysms, 5 were aneurysms adjacent to splenic portal, 5 were combined with wide and irregular aneurysm neck, 5 were abnormally combined with celiac trunk and superior mesenteric artery, 4 were multiple aneurysms, and 5 were general aneurysms in the middle and distal segment of splenic porta. There were 11 of 285 cases treated with intervention, which showed mild to moderate partial splenic infarction with abdominal pain and low fever and improved after conservative treatment. [...]2 of 41 cases treated with traditional operations showed mild stenosis of anastomosis. The data of abdominal CT examination in arterial phase were directly used for vascular reconstruction in the background through various reconstruction techniques to obtain aneurysm information from different angles, especially the structural characteristics of giant complex aneurysm and combined malformation of visceral artery. [2],[3] From this study, CT angiography helped to determine the size, number, shape, location, and internal structure of splenic artery...
