Abstract
Splenic artery aneurysms (SAAs) are uncommon aneurysms that have been diagnosed with increasing frequency during the past few years. The recently published Society for Vascular Surgery (SVS) clinical practice guidelines on the management of visceral aneurysms revised the previous recommended size threshold for repair of nonruptured true aneurysms from 2 cm to 3 cm and continued to recommend treatment of any SAAs diagnosed in women of childbearing age and any pseudoaneurysms. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate and analyze the data and outcomes of patients who had undergone open and endovascular repair of SAAs at Toronto General Hospital and compare the size threshold for repair with the recently reported SVS guidelines.
