Journal of vascular surgery cases and innovative techniques, Volume 6, Issue 4, 25 4 2020, Pages 633-636 Giant true hepatic aneurysm mimicking Mirizzi syndrome. Corion CLS, Vriens PWHE, Alwayn IPJ, Hamming JF, van Schaik J
Giant true aneurysms of the hepatic arteries are rare. Pseudoaneurysms of the hepatic arteries are more common and are mostly caused by intra-abdominal infection, iatrogenic injury, or trauma. Hepatic or cystic pseudoaneurysms are often successfully treated by embolization owing to their saccular nature as opposed to true aneurysms. We present a case of a patient with a giant true aneurysm of the proper hepatic artery, mimicking Mirizzi syndrome. Open reconstruction was successfully preformed, a... Abstract
