title: [Treatment of recurrent splenic artery aneurysm with covered stents].
abstract: Aneurysms of the visceral arteries occur the most frequently in splenic artery. They can be managed surgically or endovascularly. The endovascular techniques include embolization with coils, glue or covered stent. The case of recurrent splenic artery aneurysm treated with self-expandable stent covered with fabric PTFE is presented. The total exclusion of the aneurysm from the circulation was obtained.
