ABSTRACT
Aneurysms of the splanchnic arteries have rarely been reported. Aneurysms of the splenic artery are the most common aneurysms of the splanchnic vessels, followed by the hepatic and the mesenteric artery. Aneurysms of the gastroepiploic vessels show an incidence of only 0.4%. Due to a rupture rate of nearly 90% they are of great clinical importance. Therefore treatment is indicated for every diagnosed aneurysm of the gastroepiploic artery. While for ruptured aneurysms a conventional operation is inevitable, for asymptomatic aneurysms laparoscopic or interventional therapy is an alternative.
