A rare case of left colic branch aneurysm presenting with rupture and intra-abdominal hemorrhage

An aneurysm of the inferior mesenteric artery is a rarely described clinical presentation. We have presented the case of a ruptured aneurysm originating from a branch of the inferior mesenteric artery that might represent an aneurysm of the left colic artery or the arc of Riolan. Aneurysms of this a...

description An aneurysm of the inferior mesenteric artery is a rarely described clinical presentation. We have presented the case of a ruptured aneurysm originating from a branch of the inferior mesenteric artery that might represent an aneurysm of the left colic artery or the arc of Riolan. Aneurysms of this anatomic location can develop secondary to mesenteric occlusive disease, alterations in mesenteric blood flow from previous operations, or connective tissue disease. In the present case, a patient with a ruptured inferior mesenteric artery branch aneurysm had presented with intra-abdominal hemorrhage, which was successfully treated with endovascular embolization.
