concomitant celiac, superior mesenteric, renal, and aorto-bi-iliac aneurysms

Concomitant Celiac, Superior Mesenteric, Renal, and Aorto-bi-iliac Aneurysms

Visceral artery aneurysms are rarely reported. They can occur in the context of a variety of underlying diseases. These aneurysms may coexist with non-visceral arterial aneurysms.Here we describe an 80-year-old man with concomitant superior mesenteric, celiac, renal, and aorto-bi-iliac aneurysms. The patient was a hypertensive and hyperlipidemic old man with history of transient ischemic attack...

Concomitant Symptomatic Aneurysms of Celiac Trunk and Superior Mesenteric Artery

A 64-year old man with intermittent, paraumbilical pain which is lasting for 6 months, radiating to the back with no other symptoms underwent resection of the celiac trunk and superior mesenteric artery aneurysms. According to their size and location the aneurysms were not suitable for radiological embolisation or stentnig. Elective surgical procedure was performed. End-to-end anastomosis was c...

A morphological study of celiac, superior mesenteric and inferior mesenteric arteries in atherosclerosis.

BACKGROUND Depolymerisation of acid-mucopolysaccharides results in the loss of metachormasia of the ground substance followed by visible fibre crumbling, complete dissolution and replacement by lipid droplets and cholesterol. The objective of this study was to assess the distribution of different atherosclerotic lesions in celiac, superior mesenteric and inferior mesenteric arteries relation to...

Metabolic changes after aorto-iliac occlusion.

Leukotriene D4 relaxes canine renal and superior mesenteric arteries.

To characterize the influences of leukotriene D4 on regional vascular smooth muscle, effects of leukotriene D4 on vasomotor tone of canine renal and superior mesenteric arterial rings were determined. Vascular smooth muscle tone was measured with isometric force transducers. After tone had been induced with norepinephrine, leukotriene D4, in concentrations of 10(-8) M to 10(-7) M, produced dose...
