“…The haemoptysis was thought to be the result of invasion of the bronchial tree by the cancer and the CT showed the left upper lobe mass eroding into the aortic arch anterior wall and haemorrhage with in lung parenchyma. 6,7 However CECT Thorax showed that the haemoptysis was caused by an aortic aneurysm rupturing into the lung. CT Aortogram too inferred the same.…”

“…Os aneurismas de artérias viscerais (AAVs) e pseudoaneurismas de artérias viscerais (PAAVs) são raros, com incidência entre 0,01 e 0,2% 1 . Com o avanço de técnicas em exames de imagem como a angiotomografia computadorizada (angioTC) de abdômen e o ultrassom Doppler (USD) 2,3 para detecção de doenças intra-abdominais, juntamente com maior manipulação das vias biliares, a taxa de prevalência e o achado incidental dos aneurismas têm aumentado. Os AAVs são causados principalmente por hipertensão, aterosclerose, displasia e doenças do colágeno, enquanto os PAAVs estão associados a traumas, lesões iatrogênicas, inflamação ou infecções 4 .…”

Resumo Os aneurismas de artérias viscerais (AAVs) e pseudoaneurismas de artérias viscerais (PAAVs) são condições raras e potencialmente letais quando rotos. Em geral, são encontrados incidentalmente na tomografia computadorizada de pacientes assintomáticos. Embora a cirurgia aberta convencional seja considerada atualmente o tratamento padrão ouro, a abordagem endovascular vem ganhando relevo por ser considerada um procedimento minimamente invasivo e com riscos cirúrgicos menores. Destaca-se, nessa abordagem, o uso de embolização por molas (coils) em AAVs e PAAVs saculares e implante de stent modulador de fluxo como alternativa de tratamento para aneurismas fusiformes. Apresentamos o caso de uma paciente de 51 anos com queixa de dor abdominal aguda, taquicardia e hipotensão, com evidência de sangramento abdominal em angiotomografia e diagnóstico de pseudoaneurisma de artéria ileocólica (AIC) roto. Ela foi submetida a tratamento endovascular precoce de embolização da AIC com sucesso, e houve melhora do quadro clínico.

Popliteal artery aneurysms are frequent and may lead to thromboembolic events and limb loss. PURPOSE: To evaluate clinical and ultrasonographic follow-up of patients who underwent exclusion of a popliteal artery aneurysm using the technique proposed by Edwards. METHODS: Data of all patients who underwent surgery to repair a popliteal artery aneurysm at Hospital das Clinicas, the São Paulo University Medical School between 1996 and 2004 were reviewed. Inclusion criteria were repair with aneurysm exclusion and bypass using the technique proposed by Edwards, as well as the existence of preoperative and postoperative measurements of the aneurysmal sac. RESULTS: Data of 16 patients who underwent 20 procedures for popliteal artery aneurysm exclusion and bypass were available to analysis. The preoperative diameter of the popliteal artery aneurysms ranged from 1.3 cm to 6.1 cm (mean = 3.1 cm). Patients underwent duplex ultrasound scanning 1 month to 7 years after surgical repair. Follow-up of the 20 cases revealed that 10 aneurysms exhibited decreased mean transverse diameters, ranging from 0.2 to 2.3 cm, while 7 had increased in diameter, ranging 0.3 to 3.3 cm, and 3 remained unchanged. Flow was observed only in 5 outo f the 20 procedures, 3 of which (60%) had increased diameters. CONCLUSION: Although exclusion is a widely accepted procedure for the repair of popliteal artery aneurysms, data in the literature and the results of this study, which did not include cases of rupture or compression, suggest that strict follow-up of patients who undergo aneurysm exclusion is necessary.
