Current Debates in the Management of Visceral Artery Aneurysms: Where the Guidelines Collide

Enrico Maria Marone et al. J Clin Med. .

Abstract

On one hand, the main difficulties in establishing a wide, evidence-based consensus about the best approach to visceral artery aneurysms (VAAs) and pseudoaneurysms (VAPAs) are the paucity of data, due to their rarity in the general population, and the extreme heterogeneity of this group of diseases, which encompasses different aneurysm types, with different degrees of rupture risks according to their anatomical locations [...].
