Summary

Spleen artery aneurysm represents the most common visceral aneurysm and the third most common splanchnic aneurysm. Most patients have no symptoms and are diagnosed as a part of other diagnostic focuses and examinations. The investigators present two patients with splenic artery aneurysms localized in the splenic hilum, who auspiciously undergo laparoscopic splenectomies with hem-o-lock clips in the vascular hilum without complications. These two cases showed that in addition to the numerous advantages of minimally invasive approaches, there is the possibility to improve laparoscopic technique in terms of safety and economic reasons by using hem - o - lock clips as a hemostatic technique securing the vascular elements of the splenic hilum.
