| Popis: | Splenic artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare condition with approximately 1% prevalence. Potential risks of splenic artery aneurysms (SAAs) include rupture and life-threatening hemorrhage, which can occur in about 10% of cases. The ratio of splenic artery pseudoaneurysms in female-to-male is 4:1. It is significantly higher in patients older than 60 years and patients with portal hypertension. Such patients are usually asymptomatic, but 20% of them present with complaints such as abdominal pain and chest pain and most are usually diagnosed incidentally. In this case report, we have highlighted a 40-year-old patient who presented with pain abdomen and shock, which, after a thorough workup, came out to be a case of pseudocyst of the pancreas with rupture of SAA as well as eventration into the mediastinum through hiatus hernia. The patient was successfully managed with splenic artery coiling. |
