Abstract

Hepatic artery aneurysm in children is a very unusual pathologic entity. As most patients with this anomaly are asymptomatic, the diagnosis is usually made as an incidental finding on imaging studies performed for other reasons. Here, we report a 35-day-old infant with hepatic artery aneurysm, which was diagnosed accidentally as a liver mass during echocardiography. Considering the age of diagnosis, she most likely had a congenital type of hepatic artery aneurysm. To the best of our knowledge, this is the youngest case to be reported in the literature.

Özet

Çocuklarda hepatik arter anevrizması görülmesi alışılmadık bir durumdur. Hastaların büyük çoğunluğu asemptomatiktir ve bu anomalisi olan hastalar genellikle başka nedenler üzerine yapılan görüntülemeler ile tesadüfen tanı alırlar. Burada, ekokardiyografi sırasında tesadüfen tespit edilen ve karaciğer kitlesi olarak tanı konulan 35 günlük hepatik arter anevrizması hastası sunulmuştur. Tanı yaşı dikkate alındığında, hepatik arter anevrizmasının konjenital olduğu sonucuna varılabilir ve bildiğimiz kadarı ile bu hasta literatürde yayınlanmış en genç vakadır.
