We report the cases of 2 female patients, 45-year-old and 49-year-old, affected by wide-necked splenic aneurysm. We embolized the 2 lesions assisted by a new scaffolding neurovascular device, the Cascade Net, an innovative –occlusive remodeling device for temporary bridging in endovascular coil embolization of intracranial aneurysms. Visceral artery aneurysms are rare with an estimated prevalence of 2%-3% in imaging series and up to 10% in autopsy series. Most are asymptomatic and their diagnosis is occasionally. Aneurysm spontaneous rupture has been demonstrated in 2%-10% of cases and it can result in significant morbidity and mortality. Conservative management and open repair were the preferred treatment options for many years. Endovascular repair has been increasingly used since 2000; and the most widespread method of treatment has been coiling. Because of tortuosity of the parent artery, wide neck, and unfavorable locations at arterial branch points, 6% of Visceral and renal artery aneurysms VRAA cannot be adequately treated by simple coiling and requires parent artery remodeling through balloon occlusion, stent placement or parent vessel occlusion, leading to, in the latter situation, a compromised organ perfusion. Increasingly, balloon-assisted, and stent-assisted approaches as well as novel scaffolding neurovascular devices such as the Cascade Net, have allowed wide necked aneurysms to be bridged during endovascular treatment with smaller delivery system, averting parent artery occlusion and risk of distal embolization. |
