Endovascular repair of a giant common hepatic aneurysm.

Hepatic artery aneurysms are a rare phenomenon but their diagnosis and prompt treatment are imperative due to a high risk of mortality and complications. Appropriate management depends on patient characteristics, anatomical location of the aneurysm, operative risk and collateral arterial supply. Management options include surgical and endovascular approaches. The endovascular approach has gained popularity over recent years as it is an effective and less invasive alternative to surgical management. In this case report, we present a giant common hepatic artery aneurysm and its successful endovascular management.
