Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the techniques, efficacy, and safety for treating vascularly inaccessible abdominal visceral pseudoaneurysms by direct puncture and embolization. METHODS A retrospective study of 5 consecutive patients who underwent percutaneous direct puncture embolization for intra-abdominal pseudoaneurysms in our institution between January 2009 and December 2016. Technical aspects, success, clinical outcome, and complications were discussed. RESULTS Four patients (80%) were men, and the mean age of all five patients was 57.2 years (range, 47-72 years). The mean diameter of the pseudoaneurysms was 2.5 cm (range, 1.9-3.4 cm). All the pseudoaneurysms were punctured under the imaging guidance of fluoroscopy, ultrasound, or computed tomography. Coils and glue were used in four of the patients, the remaining one with coil only. The mean injected glue volume was 1.5 (range, 0.8-2) mL. The overall technical and clinical success rate was 100% without major complications or mortality. CONCLUSION Our single-center experience and the literature review demonstrate that percutaneous direct puncture embolization is feasible and effective to serve as an alternative for treating abdominal vascular pseudoaneurysms when the traditional endovascular embolization fails. In this approach, fluoroscopy is the most needed guidance technique.

Abstract
We report the case of a 67-year-old man in whom hemorrhage from a ruptured celiac trunk pseudoaneurysm, which occurred as a consequence of leakage at the site of gastroduodenostomy, was successfully controlled by transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with stainless steel coils and N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA). The occurrence of a pseudoaneurysm of the celiac trunk associated with anastomotic leakage is etiologically rare. We compiled reports from the literature on TAE for ruptured aneurysms of the celiac trunk, and compared its therapeutic value with that of surgical treatment. Operative death occurred in 4 of a series of 43 patients with aneurysms of the celiac trunk that were surgically treated (9.3%). In 5 patients with ruptured aneurysms, the operative mortality rate was 40% (2/5). Conversely, while the unsuccessful rate of TAE therapy was 17% (1/6), the mortality rate was nil. The patient whose case is presented here was affected by methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) at the site of leakage and in the lung. Under septic conditions such as hemorrhage secondary to pancreatitis, the mortality rate of surgical therapy was 23%-29%, whereas the success rate of TAE therapy was 79% and the mortality rate was 4%. Based on these findings, it is suggested that TAE therapy is a viable alternative to surgery for patients even with ruptured pseudoaneurysms of the celiac trunk.

Abstract
Inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysms are uncommon visceral artery aneurysms usually difficult to resect, and, if untreated, have a propensity to rupture with catastrophic results. We reviewed the clinical and treatment records of four patients encountered in our institution within the last 4 years. Three patients presented as bleeding emergencies from single aneurysms and were successfully treated by transcatheter embolization using coaxial technique and a variety of embolic agents. One nonemergent, asymptomatic patient had surgical resection of two inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysms due to unfavorable anatomy for embolization. Embolization therapy appears to be the treatment of choice in the emergency setting. Patients with unsuitable anatomy for embolization may still require surgical intervention.
