splenic artery

Both the short gastric arteries and the splenic artery supply it with blood.

Any factor that directly compromises the splenic artery can cause infarction.

Because of its proximity to the pancreas, the splenic artery is the most commonly affected vessel.

It may be related to the catheterisation of the coeliac trunk and the splenic artery.

Pregnancy is often linked to the formation and rupture of splenic artery aneurysms.

When using the splenic artery for kidney revascularisation in renovascular hypertension.

The splenic artery gives off branches to the stomach and pancreas before reaching the spleen.

It is associated with pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer and aneurysms of the splenic artery.

The left gastroepiploic artery arises from the splenic artery.

The dorsal pancreatic artery is a branch of the splenic artery.

Ruptured splenic artery aneurysm - a case report from Saudi Arabia.

Examples of distributing arteries include the radial artery and the splenic artery.

A patient with chronic pancreatitis is described in whom thrombosis of a splenic artery pseudoaneurysm occurred.

The pancreatic branches of splenic artery also supply the neck, body and tail of the pancreas.

Note that the branches of the splenic artery do not reach all the way to the lower part of the greater curvature of the stomach.

He put it across the splenic artery and vein, cut across them, and threw the spleen onto the Mayo stand.

We report on a case of thrombosis of a splenic artery pseudoaneurysm complicating chronic pancreatitis.

Spontaneous regression of small visceral pseudoaneurysms has been reported, including pseudoaneurysms of the splenic artery.

An artery in the spleen (splenic artery aneurysm)

Gregg Petrocelli, the 38-year-old Elmont coach, collapsed on the sideline and later died of a ruptured splenic artery.

Splenic infarction occurs when the splenic artery or one of its branches are occluded, for example by a blood clot.

Pseudoaneurysms are complications of pancreatitis where a pseudocyst is formed, with one wall abutting an artery, usually the splenic artery.

A coeliac and splenic angiography showed a postostial pseudoaneurysm of the splenic artery without active bleeding (Fig 2).

A coeliac angiography confirmed the thrombosis of the pseudoaneurysm and the permeability of the splenic artery (Fig 4).

Trauma during catheterisation seems unlikely, however, because the splenic artery remained permeable on follow up studies and catheterisation of the pseudoaneurysm was not performed.
