Abstract

Visceral artery aneurysms include those of the splanchnic and renal arteries, and can be either aneurysms or pseudoaneurysms. Overall this is a rare entity, but detection is increasing due to the amount of imaging tests performed nowadays.

This article reviews the natural history and characteristics of visceral artery aneurysms at different locations, evaluates the therapeutic indications and presents the current treatments available to us.
