Abstract
Splenic artery aneurysm with arteriovenous fistula is extremely rare; however, it is clinically important because of the potential of aneurysm rupture and gastroesophageal variceal hemorrhage. Most previous cases were managed by surgery directly. We present a case which was successfully treated with combined endovascular embolization and open surgery. It may be a safe and effective approach to manage this entity.
