Abstract

Superior mesenteric artery aneurysms (SMAAs) are rare and potentially life-threatening. Whether surgical or endovascular repair is performed, mesenteric ischemic complication is the greatest concern. A 56-year-old gentleman with SMAA underwent surgical resection with reconstruction of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and its branches using the great saphenous vein with several techniques, including island reconstruction of the branches, staged segmental cross-clamping, and an external shunt, to reduce the mesenteric ischemia time. The postoperative course was uneventful with no signs of mesenteric ischemia. A computed tomography scan showed that all grafts to the SMA and its branches were patent.
