Extraorganic Hepatic Artery Aneurysm:Failure of Transcatheter Embolization

Abstract: Hepatic artery aneurysm (HAA) aneurysms [3] at least in the short term, but may be unsuccessful in extraorganic HAAs [4].We report a patient with a huge extrahepatic HAA who had very high risk related to surgery.Transcatheter treatment failed to occlude the lesion.CASE REPORT

“…Complications of embolization include hepatic ischemia, abscess, cholecystitis, and possible recanalization. 151,161,162 Coil embolization is discouraged in patients with large parenchymal lesions or if large segments of liver are at risk of ischemia. In these patients, liver lobe resection should be considered.…”

“…In the past, most authors have recommended repairing HAA, whether symptomatic or not, because of the risk for rupture and associated death. 10,12,22,23 While symptomatic and ruptured HAA require intervention, not all asymptomatic aneurysms warrant repair. Our study demonstrated that a selective approach can be used to manage HAA.…”

“…Otherwise, complications such as hepatic necrosis, liver abscess or cholecystitis may occur. One of the unintended consequences is development of recanalization after embolization (13).…”
