چکیده

1 Instituto Cardiovascular “Denton Cooley”, Ciudad de Buenos Aires 2 Jefe de Servicio de Cardiología Correspondencia: [email protected] Los aneurismas de la arteria hepática son una patología vascular de baja prevalencia cuyas causas fundamentales son la arteriosclerosis y los traumatismos.(1-3). Se presentan solitarios o múltiples y pueden ser intrahepáticos o extrahepáticos; estos últimos son los más frecuentes, con una relación 4 a 1 respecto de los intrahepáticos.(4) La forma más común de presentación es la rotura aneurismática con hemoperitoneo y shock. En el pasado, se recomendaba la reparación quirúrgica, tanto en los casos sintomáticos como en los no sintomáticos;(5) actualmente y debido a su tasa de éxito, el tratamiento con dispositivos endovasculares es el indicado en los casos asintomáticos.(6) Las imágenes que presentamos corresponden a un paciente masculino de 54 años de edad, con un cuadro de ictericia y dolor abdominal de una semana de evolución, que fue derivado para su diagnóstico y tratamiento. Durante su internación, se produce una hematemesis, por lo que se realiza una fibroensoscopia digestiva alta que no evidencia lesiones a nivel digestivo. Se realiza angiografía abdominal, donde se observa un aneurisma de arteria hepática común de 25 x 20 mm.
