What are the common symptoms of splenic artery aneurysms?

Visceral artery aneurysms refer to aneurysmal dilatational diseases of visceral arteries and their branches. Splenic artery aneurysms are the most common, accounting for approximately 60% of all visceral artery aneurysms. Splenic artery aneurysms often have no typical symptoms and are frequently discovered during physical examinations or when patients seek medical attention for other diseases.

The indications for treating asymptomatic visceral artery aneurysms are mostly based on the aneurysm diameter. Many studies report that a diameter >2 cm requires surgical treatment. Traditionally, splenic artery aneurysm treatment has primarily involved open surgery, including aneurysm resection, ligation, and vascular reconstruction. However, due to its high invasiveness and complication rate, it is now less commonly used.

Endovascular treatment has been widely used clinically in recent years due to its advantages of minimal invasiveness, low perioperative complication rate, and broad indications.Endovascular treatment methods mainly include coil embolization, endovascular stent grafting, and multilayer bare stent coverage.
