In the past, treatment of visceral artery aneurysms (VAAs) was exclusively surgical. These aneurysms were rarely diagnosed in elective or emergency cases. Development of imaging techniques and endovascular procedures has changed the history of the therapeutic options for this pathology. Endovascular management of VAAs has arisen to advances in endovascular techniques and has achieved high efficacy.
A embolização de ramos da artéria ilíaca interna é uma técnica empregada no controle da hemorragia secundária à fratura pélvica. Apesar de largamente utilizada, são poucas as complicações relatadas relacionadas ao uso dessa técnica. Apresentamos um caso de estenose isquêmica de reto secundária à embolização da artéria sacral lateral para controle de hemorragia em uma paciente com fratura pélvica.
We describe a case of post-traumatic high-flow carotid-cavernous fistula that was successfully treated with coils and pipeline embolization device. Following the endovascular treatment, the patient experienced clinical improvement of symptoms with complete anatomical restoration of the internal carotid artery.
