[Surgical treatment of pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysm combined with celiac trunk occlusion].

We report successful surgical treatment of inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysm combined with celiac trunk occlusion. Considering angioarchitectonics of the afferent and efferent arteries (significant tortuosity), possible liver ischemia during endovascular occlusion of pancreaticoduodenal artery and expected low efficiency of embolization, the patient underwent open surgery (celiac trunk replacement and resection of pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysm). Postoperative period was uneventful.
