Aneurysms of the celiac artery are unusual lesions and account for only 4% of all splanchnic aneurysms. In recent years, the incidence has been noted to rise because of the increased use of sonography, computerized tomography, and arteriography. Although patients are often asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis, the risk of rupture is high; therefore, surgical resection should be undertaken in acceptable candidates. We report the case of a large celiac artery aneurysm treated with distal pancreatectomy and celiac artery aneurysmectomy.
