Robotic system-assisted endovascular treatment of a dissection-related pseudoaneurysm of the celiac axis secondary to fibromuscular dysplasia

Abstract

Spontaneous celiac artery dissection caused by fibromuscular dysplasia is rare. Subsequent thrombosis and occlusion of the celiac trunk can result in intestinal ischemia and hepatic failure. We describe a case of spontaneous celiac artery dissection with an associated pseudoaneurysm caused by fibromuscular dysplasia, extending into the common hepatic artery. An endovascular intervention featuring robotic-assisted celiac artery cannulation with stent-assisted coil embolization resulted in successful treatment.
