do<strong>vascular</strong> ligation technique. This technique has been successfully<br />
applied to <strong>the</strong> treatment <strong>of</strong> visceral aneurysms [17]<br />
and, given that <strong>the</strong> 10-mm AVP can be <strong>use</strong>d w<strong>it</strong>h 6-Fr guiding<br />
ca<strong>the</strong>ters, we recognised <strong>the</strong> possibil<strong>it</strong>y <strong>of</strong> excluding<br />
aneurysms <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> mid splenic artery. As an alternative, when<br />
vessel tortuos<strong>it</strong>y and <strong>the</strong> diameter <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> outflow vessels<br />
preclude advancement <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> device, <strong>the</strong> distal outflow vessels<br />
can be embolised w<strong>it</strong>h metallic coils and <strong>the</strong> proximal<br />
feeding vessel w<strong>it</strong>h <strong>the</strong> AVP, as done by us in <strong>the</strong> case <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> internal iliac aneurysm.<br />
In <strong>the</strong> treatment <strong>of</strong> peripheral aneurysms, where maintenance<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>vascular</strong> continu<strong>it</strong>y is not a prior<strong>it</strong>y, possible<br />
options include endo<strong>vascular</strong> ligation or a hybrid approach.<br />
The hybrid approach has been reported in <strong>the</strong> treatment <strong>of</strong><br />
embolizzante; in questi casi si è osservato l’ottimo ancoraggio<br />
del VPA con immediato effetto occlusivo [4, 7, 9, 13]. In<br />
questi casi l’alternativa è l’utilizzo di spirali metalliche [15,<br />
16]; l’indicazione all’occlusione mediante palloncino staccabile<br />
in lattice è ormai per le MAV polmonari obsoleta.<br />
Tra i lavori pubblicati successivamente, un caso sporadico<br />
di aneurisma isolato dell’arteria ipogastrica in rottura [14]<br />
descrive l’embolizzazione mediante spirali metalliche dei<br />
rami efferenti di suddivisione e dell’origine dell’arteria ipogastrica<br />
mediante VPA con la tecnica della “ legatura endovascolare”.<br />
Quest’ultima tecnica è stata adottata con<br />
successo nel trattamento degli aneurismi viscerali [17] e<br />
poiché il VPA del calibro da 10 mm scorre su cateteri guida<br />
da 6 F abbiamo individuato la possibil<strong>it</strong>à di escludere gli
