The Behçets disease is a vasculitis of an unknown origin. Vascular inflammatory lesions predominantly affect veins, potentially leading to superficial or deep thrombophlebitis. Arterial involvement is rare, mainly aneurysms. We display two case reports of patients where Behçets disease is revealed by celiac trunk aneurysm. The symptoms are nonspecific. Ultrasound Doppler and angioscan are a key to the diagnosis. The two patients received medical and surgical treatment. By these two case reports, we insist that the diagnosis of Behçets disease should be evoqued in any young patient with arterial aneurysm.

Venous aneurysms are a relatively rare pathology, far less common than arterial aneurysms. Unrelated to either age or gender, they can affect any vein, including cervical, thoracic, visceral, and lower limb veins. Aneurysmal dilatations in cervical veins are rare due to low pressure in the vena cava system; they can involve any vein but most frequently are observed on the internal and external jugular veins. This report of three patients highlights some of the specific diagnostic and therapeutic features of this pathology.

INTRODUCTION Giant splenic artery aneurysm is exceptional. We report a case and review the literature to ascertain the characteristic epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic features of this condition. CASE REPORT A 62-year-old man was admitted for epigastric pain. Physical examination found an epigastric pulsatile mass. A contrast computed scan of the abdomen revealed a 10-cm thrombosed aneurysm of the splenic artery. An abdominal aortography, including selective celiac angiography, confirmed the presence of a 10-cm aneurysm originating from the medial third of the splenic artery. The patient underwent open surgical repair. The proximal and the distal splenic artery were ligated from within the aneurysm. The postoperative period was uneventful. CONCLUSION Giant aneurysm of the splenic artery is a rare clinical entity. These aneurysms differ from usual splenic artery aneurysms in several ways involving the predominant gender, localization on the splenic artery, clinical presentation, and treatment.

t d a m m A 44-year-old-man was admitted to our hospital for a painful mass of the right lower quadrant of the abdomen. It appeared spontaneously three weeks before the presentation without fever and any other associated symptoms. The past medical history of this patient was remarkable for oral and genital aphtous ulcers and phlebitis of the right lower limb two years earlier, of unknown etiology. The physical exam revealed a vascular mass of the right lower abdominal quadrant, pseudofolliculitis and oral aphtous ulcer. The arterial angioscan of the aorta and the lower limbs showed a pseudo-aneurysm of the right common iliac artery of 13 cm of diameter (Fig. 1 et 2). Routine laboratory showed an inflammatory syndrom. The diagnosis of vascular Behçet’s disease with arterial involvement was established. The patient underwent a surgical repair including a pros-

Marfan syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder with rheumatoid, ophthalmological, neurological, cutaneous and cardiovascular manifestations. Aneurysmal lesions affecting both the abdominal aorta and the peripheral arteries are not often described in the literature. We report a case associating a bilateral popliteal aneurysm and an aneurysm of the infra-renal abdominal aorta.

BackgroundA traumatic non-anastomotic pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of an axillofemoral bypass graft. Fewer than 20 cases have been reported in the literature. Our case is unusual in that we report a double localization of this complication.Case presentationWe report the case of a 60-year-old Arabic male patient who was diagnosed with two hematomas in the trajectory of his axillofemoral bypass secondary to a traumatism. The diagnosis of a non-anastomotic pseudoaneurysm was retained considering the results of a computed tomography angiography scan, which showed the double localization of the pseudoaneurysm. Surgical management consisted of flattening the pseudoaneurysm along with the interposition of a prosthetic segment. There were no postoperative complications and our patient was well 3 years after discharge.ConclusionsNon-anastomotic pseudoaneurysm is a rarely described complication of a axillofemoral bypass graft. To the best of our knowledge, a double localization has not been described in the literature before. Minimally invasive techniques as a treatment option are being widely used as an alternative to open repair.

Infectious aneurysm is a severe entity of the aneurysmal pathology, due essentially to a bacterial agent. The most frequently implicated organisms are salmonella and staphylococci. We report the case of an infectious aneurysm of the two primitive iliac arteries with Salmonella typhimurium in a 70-year-old man.

IntroductionLe syndrome d’hyperperfusion cerebrale avec hemorragie intracrânienne, apres endarteriectomie ou stenting carotidien, est associe a une morbi-mortalite importante [1, 2]. La physiopathologie de ce syndrome reste obscure [3]. Parmi les hypotheses avancees, la perte d’autoregulation des capillaires cerebraux liee a l’ischemie chronique est le mecanisme le plus souvent retenu. Mais les modifications hemodynamiques survenant apres la revascularisation carotidienne [...]

IntroductionLa dysphagia lusoria correspond a une compression de l’œsophage par une artere sous-claviere droite d’origine anormalement situee sur la partie gauche distale de la crosse aortique et qui empreinte un trajet retro-œsophagien avant de joindre la region sus-claviculaire droite. La premiere description clinique de cette anomalie vasculaire remonte a 1794 par Bayford [1]. Bien qu’elle soit rarement symptomatique, il s’agit de l’anomalie vasculaire la plus frequente de [...]

Objectifs.— Rapporter deux cas rares d’anévrysme aortique d’origine tuberculeux et faire le point sur les spécificités thérapeutiques de type atteinte artérielle septique. Introduction.— La localisation artérielle de la tuberculose est classique mais l’atteinte aortique est rare. Il s’agit souvent d’anévrysmes et de faux anévrysmes. La rupture en représente un risque majeur, imprévisible et létal. Leur pronostic est conditionné par la précocité du diagnostic et du traitement. Matériels et méthodes.— La première observation est celle d’une jeune femme de 36 ans avec antécédents familiaux récents de tuberculose, qui nous a été adressée pour prise en charge d’un anévrysme de l’aorte abdominale. L’angioscanner thoraco-abdominal montrait un anévrysme de l’aorte sous-rénale sacciforme avec un ganglion paraaortique. La patiente avait bénéficié d’une mise à plat et d’une greffe prothétique par un tube aortique. Les suites opératoires étaient simples et l’histologie de la coque anévrysmale et du ganglion était en faveur d’une localisation aortique de la tuberculose. La patiente a été mise sous traitement antibacellaire pendant six mois avec une bonne évolution. La deuxième observation est celle d’une jeune fille de 13 ans qui consultait pour des douleurs abdominales fébriles, avec une altération récente de l’état général. L’examen clinique trouvait une masse abdominale battante et douloureuse. L’angio-IRM thoraco-abdominale avait montré plusieurs petits anévrysmes sacciformes de l’aorte thoracique descendante et deux grands faux anévrysmes de l’aorte abdominale sous-rénale. La patiente avait bénéficié d’une mise à plat des faux anévrysmes sous-rénaux avec reconstruction prothétique in situ par un tube aortique. Les suites opératoires étaient simples. L’étude histologique de la paroi aortique était en faveur de la tuberculose. Un traitement antibacillaire a été entrepris pendant six mois avec une bonne évolution. Discussion.— L’atteinte aortique de la tuberculose est souvent sous forme de faux anévrysmes sans paroi propre, ils sont développés à partir d’une perforation de la paroi aortique, et de ce fait, le risque de rupture est élevé. Celle-ci est imprévisible et entraîne jusqu’à 50 % de mortalité. La chirurgie de ces anévrysmes est indiquée en urgence, elle consiste à une mise à plat de l’anévrysme avec reconstruction prothétique in situ de l’aorte. Le traitement antituberculeux est systématiquement associé, mais sa durée optimale n’est pas définie. Elle est au minimum de six mois. La possibilité d’un traitement endovasculaire
