Abstract
Objective: Aneurysms of the celiac artery and its visceral branches are more often an incidental finding and can lead to serious complications. Many difficulties arise in matters of their treatment due to the rarity of occurrence.
Case presentation: This report describes the rare case of saccular celiac artery aneurysm in patient with severe cardiac comorbidities including history of cardiac surgeries. Celiac artery aneurysm was treated using the endovascular coiling procedure. We had coil dislocation during procedure, and 2nd attempt of coil embolization of aneurysm was successful. The dislocation into femoral artery was treated successfully. Immediate and 1st month follow-up data showed no evidence of recanalization and aneurysm enlargement and computed tomography angiography chowed correct position of coil.
Conclusion: Coil embolization is a safe and effective method for the treatment of celiac artery aneurysm in patients with severe comorbid conditions. One should be also prepared for possible technical difficulties that were overcome successfully and thus making minimal invasive approach in such patients effective.
