Endovascular Approach of a Proximal Anterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery Aneurysm: Case Report Abordagem endovascular de um aneurisma proximal da artéria cerebelar anterior inferior: relato de caso

Rupture of celiac trunk aneurysm in patient with Behçet Disease.

We report a case of a ruptured aneurysm of the celiac trunk in a 32-year-old, male patient with Behçet Disease (BD). Aneurysm resection was performed and the patient is well during a follow up of 32 months. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a ruptured celiac trunk aneurysm successfully treated in a patient with BD. RESUMO Relatamos o caso de um aneurisma roto do tronco celíac...

Endovascular treatment of iatrogenic penetrating trauma of the carotid artery: case report Tratamento endovascular de trauma penetrante iatrogênico de artéria carótida: relato de caso

Carotid trauma demands early diagnosis and treatment. Open repair may be technically challenging if the trauma is at the base of the neck. We present a case of iatrogenic penetrating carotid trauma caused by insertion of a hemodialysis catheter. Treatment was accomplished by placement of a covered stent-graft in the common carotid artery, covering the puncture site. This case suggests that plac...
