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
