Abstract

A 54-year-old woman with a mycotic superior mesenteric artery (SMA) aneurysm underwent emergent aneurysm resection with a great saphenous vein bypass. Follow-up computed tomography revealed a rapidly growing recurrent SMA aneurysm at the stump. Under the diagnosis of recurrent pseudoaneurysm of SMA with a fragile stump, we performed an open dual arterial bypass using indocyanine green fluorescence angiography and endovascular coil embolization. Subsequently, the patient's recurrent mycotic SMA aneurysm was successfully managed without mesenteric ischemic complications. This method may help prevent fatal mesenteric ischemia during SMA aneurysm surgery.
