A celiacomesenteric trunk is an anomaly in which the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries have a common origin from the aorta. This structure accounts for less than 1% of all visceral artery anomalies, and is estimated to have an incidence of 0.25%. Aneurysms involving a celiacomesenteric trunk are exceptionally rare. We herein report our treatment modality for an 82-year-old man with a visceral artery aneurysm involving a celiacomesenteric trunk. The aneurysm was resected, and the superior mesenteric, splenic, and common hepatic arteries were successfully reconstructed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
