Case Report of a Large Common Hepatic Artery Aneurysm

Hepatic artery aneurysm is rare, but appropriate treatment is mandatory. We report a 50-year-old woman with an asymptomatic large hepatic artery aneurysm. The aneurysm was found as a result of abdominal computed tomography (CT) performed as a part of the screening. An open surgery was performed due to the size of the aneurysm. Aneurysmectomy was achieved, and the proper hepatic artery was anastomosed with gastroduodenal artery for adequate blood flow to the liver. Adequate hepatic circulation was confirmed postoperatively by duplex ultrasonography and CT. The patient was discharged on the 9th postoperative day.
