Abstract

Celiac artery is a visceral abdominal vasculature whose aneurysms are very rare, accounting for less than 0.01% of all aneurysms. This condition can be treated by open aneurysmectomy or aneurysmorrhaphy and endovascular intervention. Due to the high mortality and morbidity associated with open surgery, endovascular intervention may be a better treatment option. Here, we present a case related to a 40-year-old man who had been experiencing vague epigastric pain for 4 months prior to admission and was managed endovascularly. © 2021 Published by Oxford University Press and JSCR Publishing Ltd.
