Treatment of celiac artery rupture with a hybrid procedure involving aortic stent grafting and open surgery in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1

Neurofibromatosis type 1 is associated with vascular fragility, and vascular disease is the second leading cause of death in these patients. A 42-year-old woman with neurofibromatosis type 1 was transferred to our hospital owing to shock. A computed tomography scan revealed a ruptured celiac artery...

Sumario:Neurofibromatosis type 1 is associated with vascular fragility, and vascular disease is the second leading cause of death in these patients. A 42-year-old woman with neurofibromatosis type 1 was transferred to our hospital owing to shock. A computed tomography scan revealed a ruptured celiac artery aneurysm, which had expanded from 14 to 26 mm in 1 day. The survival rate of patients with celiac artery rupture is extremely low, and there is no consensus on treatment. Here, we successfully performed a hybrid procedure with emergent implantation of aortic stent grafts for life-saving treatment and subsequent laparotomy for complete hemostasis.
