ABSTRACT

Introducción: los aneurismas de la arteria esplénica son los más frecuentes de aquellos que asientan en arterias viscerales. La existencia de múltiples aneurismas esplénicos es rara, existiendo pocos casos publicados. Generalmente son asintomáticos y constituyen un hallazgo, es poco frecuente la presentación en nuestra paciente, con dolor inespecífico de hemiabdomen superior. Existen diferentes alternativas terapéuticas, son de primera línea la angio-embolización y colocación de stent endovasculares, tienen como principales limitantes el tamaño del aneurisma y la tortuosidad de la arteria esplénica que dificultan acceso endovascular. El tratamiento quirúrgico queda reservado, para situaciones especiales. Puede realizarse con conservación esplénica (actuando únicamente sobre el aneurisma) o mediante esplenectomía. Descripción de contenido: el video presenta un caso clínico, de aneurismas múltiples de arteria esplénica. El mismo expone presentación clínica, diagnóstico, opciones terapéuticas y la optada en este caso: esplenectomía laparoscópica. Conclusiones: se trata de una entidad poco frecuente, por lo que consideramos fundamental la comunicación del caso. Si bien generalmente constituyen un hallazgo imagenológico, resulta de vital importancia el tratamiento oportuno a fin de prevenir complicaciones graves como la rotura del aneurisma.

Introduction: splenic artery aneurysms are the most frequent kind among aneurysms in visceral arteries. The existence of multiple aneurysms is rather unusual, there being few cases published. In general they constitute findings as they are asymptomatic. The presentation of the patient in the study, with non-specific upper abdominal pain is rather infrequent. Among the different therapeutic options, angio-embolization and the collocation of endovascular stents are the front line approaches, the main limitations being the size of the aneurysm and the tortuous nature of the splenic artery which makes endovascular access difficult. Surgical treatment is reserved for special situations and it May preserve the spleen (only acting on the aneurysm) or may involve a splenectomy. Content description: the video presents a clinical case of multiple splenic artery aneurysms covering clinical presentation, diagnosis and therapeutic options - the chosen one in this case being laparoscopic spenectomy. Conclusions: it is rather an unusual condition, and therefore dissemination of the case is key. Despite their generally being image studies findings, it is of the essence to apply timely therapy to prevent serious complications like the rupture of the aneurysm.

Introdução: os aneurismas da artéria esplênica são os mais comuns nas artérias viscerais. A existência de múltiplos aneurismas esplênicos é rara, com poucos casos publicados. Geralmente são assintomáticos e constituem um achado acidental, sendo rara a apresentação observada na nossa paciente, com dor inespecífica no hemiabdome superior. Existem diferentes alternativas terapêuticas sendo a angioembolização e a colocação de stent endovascular as de primeira linha, suas principais limitações são o tamanho do aneurisma e a tortuosidade da artéria esplênica que dificultam o acesso endovascular. O tratamento cirúrgico é reservado para situações especiais. Pode ser realizada com preservação esplênica (atuando apenas no aneurisma) ou por esplenectomia. Descrição do conteúdo: o vídeo apresenta um caso clínico de múltiplos aneurismas de artéria esplênica. Expõe apresentação clínica, diagnóstico, opções terapêuticas e a escolhida neste caso: esplenectomia laparoscópica. Conclusões: é uma entidade rara, pelo que consideramos essencial a comunicação do caso.

ABSTRACT

La hemorragia digestiva determinada por una fístula entre manga gástrica y seudoaneurisma de arteria esplénica o polo superior de bazo es infrecuente. Se presenta un caso clínico de una paciente de 52 años con antecedentes de cirugía de manga gástrica y fuga anastomótica. Ingresó por hemorragia digestiva alta grave. Se operó de emergencia y realizó punto hemostático sobre cara posterior de manga gástrica. Se reintervino por resangrado realizándose la gastrectomía y esplenopancreatectomía distal por solución de continuidad de arteria esplénica. Dada la inestabilidad hemodinámica se efectuó un esofagostoma y yeyunostomía, reconstruyéndose a los 8 meses con buena evolución.


Gastrointestinal bleeding caused by a fistula between the gastric sleeve and a pseudoaneurysm of the splenic artery or upper pole of the spleen is uncommon. A clinical case of a 52-year-old patient with a history of gastric sleeve surgery and anastomotic leak is presented. She was admitted for severe upper gastrointestinal bleeding. She underwent emergency surgery and performed a hemostatic stitch on the posterior face of the gastric sleeve. She underwent reoperation due to rebleeding, performing gastrectomy and distal splenopancreatectomy due to discontinuation of the splenic artery. Given the hemodynamic instability, an esophagostomy and jejunostomy were performed, reconstructing at 8 months with good evolution.


O sangramento gastrointestinal causado por uma fístula entre a manga gástrica e um pseudoaneurisma da artéria esplênica ou pólo superior do baço é incomum. Apresenta-se o caso clínico de um paciente de 52 anos com história de cirurgia de manga gástrica e fístula anastomótica. Ele foi internado por hemorragia digestiva alta grave. Uma operação de emergência foi realizada e um ponto hemostático foi realizado na face posterior da manga gástrica. Foi reoperado por ressangramento, realizando gastrectomia e esplenopancreatectomia distal por descontinuação da artéria esplênica. Dada a instabilidade hemodinâmica, foi realizada esofagostomia e jejunostomia, reconstruindo aos 8 meses com boa evolução.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Background: Alterations in the structure of resistance vessels contribute to elevated systemic vascular resistance in hypertension and are linked to sympathetic hyperactivity and related lesions in target organs. Objective: To assess the effects of exercise training on hemodynamic and autonomic parameters, as well as splenic arteriolar damages in male Wistar Kyoto (WKY) and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats (SHR). Methods: Normotensive sedentary (WKYS) and trained (WKYT) rats, and hypertensive sedentary (SHRS) and trained (SHRT) rats were included in this study. After 9 weeks of experimental protocol (swimming training or sedentary control), arterial pressure (AP) and heart rate (HR) were recorded in freely moving rats. We assessed the autonomic control of the heart by sympathetic and vagal autonomic blockade. Morphometric analyses of arterioles were performed in spleen tissues. The statistical significance level was set at p < 0.05. Results: Resting bradycardia was observed in both trained groups (WKYT: 328.0 ± 7.3 bpm; SHRT: 337.0 ± 5.2 bpm) compared with their respective sedentary groups (WKYS: 353.2 ± 8.5 bpm; SHRS: 412.1 ± 10.4 bpm; p < 0.001). Exercise training attenuated mean AP only in SHRT (125.9 ± 6.2 mmHg) vs. SHRS (182.5 ± 4.2 mmHg, p < 0.001). The WKYT showed a higher vagal effect (∆HR: 79.0 ± 2.3 bpm) compared with WKYS (∆HR: 67.4 ± 1.7 bpm; p < 0.05). Chronic exercise decreased sympathetic effects on SHRT (∆HR: -62.8 ± 2.8 bpm) in comparison with SHRS (∆HR: -99.8 ± 9.2 bpm; p = 0.005). The wall thickness of splenic arterioles in SHR was reduced by training (332.1 ± 16.0 µm2 in SHRT vs. 502.7 ± 36.3 µm2 in SHRS; p < 0.05). Conclusions: Exercise training attenuates sympathetic activity and AP in SHR, which may be contributing to the morphological improvement of the splenic arterioles.


Resumo Fundamento: Alterações na estrutura dos vasos de resistência contribuem para elevar a resistência vascular sistêmica na hipertensão, estando ligadas à hiperatividade simpática e lesões em órgãos-alvo. Objetivo: Avaliar os efeitos do treinamento físico nos parâmetros hemodinâmicos e autônomos, assim como as lesões arteriolares esplênica em ratos machos Wistar Kyoto (WKY) e espontaneamente hipertensos (SHR). Métodos: Ratos normotensos sedentários (WKYS) e treinados (WKYT), e ratos hipertensos sedentários (SHRS) e treinados (SHRT) foram incluídos neste estudo. Após nove semanas de aplicação do protocolo experimental (treinamento de natação ou controle sedentário), registraram-se a pressão arterial (PA) e a frequência cardíaca (FC) dos ratos em movimento livre. Avaliamos o controle autônomo do coração através de bloqueio autônomo simpático e vagal. Análises morfométricas das arteríolas esplênicas foram realizadas. Adotou-se o nível de significado estatístico de p < 0,05. Resultados: Observou-se bradicardia de repouso nos dois grupos treinados (WKYT: 328,0 ± 7,3 bpm; SHRT: 337,0 ± 5,2 bpm) em comparação aos seus respectivos grupos sedentários (WKYS: 353,2 ± 8,5 bpm; SHRS: 412,1 ± 10,4 bpm; p < 0,001). O treinamento físico atenuou a PA média apenas no grupo SHRT (125,9 ± 6,2 mmHg vs. 182,5 ± 4,2 mmHg no SHRS; p < 0,001). O grupo WKYT mostrou maior efeito vagal (∆FC: 79,0 ± 2,3 bpm) em comparação ao grupo WKYS (∆FC: 67,4 ± 1,7 bpm; p < 0,05). Exercício crônico diminuiu os efeitos simpáticos em SHRT (∆FC: -62.8 ± 2.8 bpm) em comparação a SHRS (∆FC: -99,8 ± 9,2 bpm; p = 0,005). A espessura da parede das arteríolas esplênicas nos SHR foi reduzida pelo treinamento (332,1 ± 16,0 µm2 nos SHRT vs. 502,7 ± 36,3 µm2 nos SHRS; p < 0,05). Conclusões: O treinamento físico atenua a atividade simpática e a PA em SHR, o que pode contribuir para melhorar a morfologia das arteríolas esplênicas.

ABSTRACT

Resumen Introducción: La enfermedad multianeurismática es una entidad patológica poco conocida, la cual presenta diversas etiologías, por lo que su localización, morfología y formas de presentación varían de un caso a otro. Caso clínico: Mujer de 51 años dislipémica. Acude por epigastralgia. Se realiza TC abdominal con resultados de hematoma retroperitoneal y aneurisma en arteria pancreática duodenal. Se practica cirugía urgente para evacuación del hematoma sin encontrarse más hallazgos. Durante el ingreso presenta crisis hipertensivas y se realiza nuevo AngioTC donde se visualizan múltiples lesiones en distintas arterias viscerales con posibilidad diagnóstica de vasculitis. Se decide no intervención en el momento actual y estudio de filiación. Discusión: La enfermedad multianeurismática es una entidad poco común, cuya etiología se determina de acuerdo con su correlación clínica e histopatológica con diversas posibles causas; sin embargo, establecer un diagnóstico en donde el cuadro clínico coincida al 100%, es un desafío. Es muy frecuente la afectación de las arterias viscerales a diferencia de los aneurismas de origen ateroesclerótico. El tratamiento quirúrgico es seguro y deberá iniciarse en los segmentos que estén causando la sintomatología. El tratamiento endovascular es menos invasivo siendo la técnica de elección en pacientes con elevada comorbilidad y en los casos de cirugía complicada con rotura.


Introduction: Multiple artery aneurysms are a rare pathological condition which may be caused by different etiologies. Therefore, its location, morphology and clinical presentation may vary in a case to case basis. Case report: A 51-year-old woman, prior history of dyslipedemia presents with upper abdominal pain. Abdominal tomographic scans showed aneurysm of the pancreaticduodenal artery and retroperitoneal hematoma. Emergent surgical evacuation of the hematoma was performed, with no other findings. In the postoperative period, the patient suffers hypertensive crisis and a new tomographic scan is conducted observing multiple dilations in different visceral arteries. The patient is treated conservatively and is being studied for a possible vasculitis. Discussion: Multi-aneurysmatic artery disease is a very rare entity, its etiology is determined by clinical and histopathological correlation. Although establishing a diagnosis in which the clinical presentation completely corresponds, is a real challenge. Unlike degenerative aneurysms due to atherosclerosis, multi-aneurysmatic disease commonly involves visceral arteries. Open surgery is considered safe treatment option and should be established in the segments causing symptoms. Endovascular treatment is less invasive, being the technique of choice in patients with high comorbidity and in cases of complicated surgery with rupture.

ABSTRACT

The splenic artery is the visceral vessel that is most often affected by aneurysmal disease. Occasionally, gastrointestinal bleeding may signify that the aneurysm is in communication with the digestive tract. We report on the case of a 64-year-old multiparous patient with intermittent digestive bleeding caused by a splenic artery aneurysm who was successfully treated with endovascular embolization.


A artéria esplênica é o vaso visceral mais acometido pela doença aneurismática. Ocasionalmente, um sangramento gastrointestinal pode refletir uma comunicação entre o aneurisma de artéria esplênica e o trato digestivo. Relatamos o caso de uma paciente de 64 anos com hemorragia digestiva intermitente devida a aneurisma de artéria esplênica, a qual foi submetida ao tratamento endovascular por embolização com sucesso.

ABSTRACT

A lesão arterial esplênica é uma rara complicação relacionada a situações como trauma, lesão iatrogênica e pancreatite. Hemostasia pode ser feita por identificação do foco do sangramento através de cateterismo seletivo seguido por embolização do ramo sangrante. Relata-se caso clínico de um paciente portador de pancreatite biliar que apresentou, durante procedimento de necrosectomia, hemorragia decorrente da ruptura da artéria esplênica, sendo, então, tratado com sucesso por embolização supersseletiva.


Splenic artery injury is a rare complication related to trauma, iatrogenic injury, and pancreatitis. Hemostasis can be made by identification of the vascular lesion through selective catheterism followed by embolization of the bleeding vessel. We report a case of a patient with biliary pancreatitis, who presented hemorrhage due to rupture of the splenic artery during a necrosectomy procedure and was successfully treated with selective embolization.

ABSTRACT

We report a 40-year-old man with rheumatic heart disease who presented with abdominal pain for three weeks and hematemesis for 24 hours. CT scan showed a large splenic artery aneurysm without evidence of pancreatitis. Mycotic aneurysm due to infective endocarditis was considered and confirmed by echocardiogram, which showed aortic and mitral valve regurgitation and vegetations. He was managed successfully with coil embolization of the aneurysm and antibiotics.

ABSTRACT

Los aneurismas de la arteria esplénica son entidades patológicas raras, con riesgo de romperse y producir una hemorragia fatal. La rotura de un aneurisma de la arteria esplénica en el embarazo es una causa de emergencia obstétrica de rara presentación. La mortalidad para la mujer es del 69,4 por ciento y 90,8 por ciento para el feto. Estos aneurismas se presentan en el 95 por ciento de los casos de manera asintomática; pero un examen exhaustivo con ultrasonografía puede detectar el defecto. Se describe el caso de una mujer de 22 años, multípara con embarazo de 38 semanas, quien después de un parto eutócico y durante el puerperio inmediato presenta cuadro de shock hipovolémico y fallece. El estudio anatomopatológico macroscopico reveló hemorragia aguda intraabdominal por rotura de aneurisma de la arteria esplénica. Se destaca que la supervivencia de la paciente y el feto depende considerablemente de la detección temprana y rápida intervención

ABSTRACT

Los aneurismas de la arteria esplénica son una entidad rara pero clínicamente importante, la mayoría de éstos son únicos en número, sin embargo, se han encontrado aneurismas múltiples, los cuales se localizan principalmente en el tercio distal de la arteria esplénica. Estos aneurismas han sido diagnosticados de manera incidental en autopsias, cirugías y principalmente por radiografía simple de abdomen, observándose una calcificación curvilínea en el cuadrante superior izquierdo, o bien, mediante angiografía abdominal. Los pacientes son asintomáticos y cuando no lo son, manifiestan un dolor vago en el cuadrante superior izquierdo. Se presenta un caso de una paciente de 50 años de edad con aneurismas múltiples de la arteria esplénica, a la cual se le practicó resección de los aneurismas con esplenectomía.

ABSTRACT

Splenic aneurysm rupture during pregnancy is an uncommon, obstetric acute emergency which requires prompt communication between the obstetrician and the surgeon. Our case illustrates the importance of suspecting the condition early, and prompt surgery in order to salvage the mother and the fetus. The obstetrician should entertain strongly the diagnosis of ruptured aneurysm of the splenic artery in a pregnant woman who complains of pain in the left upper quadrant, especially in the third trimester irrespective of her clinical status. We did not suspect the condition early enough and as a result could not salvage the fetus. The maternal and fetal survival depends on the awareness of this rare condition and immediate surgery to deliver the fetus and arrest hemorrhage

ABSTRACT

Aneurysms of the splenic artery are very rare, but if diagnosed before rupture, they can safely treated. A case of a 35- year old multigravida with a large pulsatile mass in the upper abdomen which was diagnosed as a splenic artery aneurysm and successfully resected is being presented. To our knowledge, and after review of the literature, an aneurysm of this size has never been reported

ABSTRACT

A case of spontaneous rupture of a splenic artery aneurysm during labour and postpartum is described, with successful outcome of both mother and baby. This brings the total number of published cases with both maternal and fetal survival to 13. On reviewing the literature, it is demonstrated that, contrary to previous reviews, the mortality rate has declined substantially for both mother and fetus from 81% to 16% and 84% to 32% respectively
