Celiac Artery Aneurysm: Anyone else with same illness?

Agreeing with Sharon.
May God🌹be with you.🙏🙏

I have researched zarelto and it is a blood thinner. I thought it was either Coumadin or warfarin (same thing).

Dear All
Thank you for sharing the information as above.
I was diagnosed with a celiac artery Aneurism in 2020 and the size was 1.cm . Last year due to my abdominal pain after CT scans the result show an increase of the size to 1.1cm .
My Dr advise to observe if the aneurysm grows further before considering surgical intervention. Surgery
I will appreciate if anyone could advise me on the above issue .
Thx
Wendy

Would love any additional updates from anyone my husband also just had this and they have done nothing, and basic just a wait and see. That does not really sit well with me, feel like we should be more proactive?

Hello-please see my post at the celiac artery dissection thread as celiac aneurysm can occur with this issue. Hope this helps. Also, there are two types of celiac aneurysms-true and false which determines how they are treated. My personal advice is to always seek a second opinion for serious medical issues like this with a specialist (like a vascular surgeon) at a tertiary care center where these rarer problems are treated more frequently. Hard to balance anxiety of the risks and concerns of monitoring vs the risks of treatment.

My celac artery dissected recently. The doctors think it could fix itself. I have a new scan in 6 months to see how I am doing. It is a lot to digest, but I've worked as a medical professional for over 30 years. It has helped my own understanding of everything.

Hang in there. The fact that you're under a doctor's care and monitoring it means you're better off than 99% of the people out there who do not know that they have this condition. Peace.

Hi - I am in Australia too. Let us know how you are doing with your surgery plan - or how did you go? PM me if you want to chat.

I read in one of the comments that one of the members on Mayo Clinic Connect had a celiac artery aneurysm repaired by an embolization w/ coils procedure back in 2016. My husband has a celiac artery aneurysm that is 1.5 cm in size, and I have read on this site that usually these aneurysms are repaired when they reach 2 cm in size. We are very interested in a less invasive approach and are wondering if Mayo Clinic's Vascular Surgery department repairs celiac artery aneurysms with this less invasive endovascular approach or if this is an endovascular procedure repaired by interventional radiology. Any information regarding this issue would be most helpful. Thank you all and best wishes for good health.

I fell off a cliff in the jungles of Costa Rica. I cracked my sternum and they found a celiac artery aneurysm that is 1.5cm in size. I was told that so long as it is stable they will monitor every two years. I was told that I would know if the aneurysm ruptures is by back pain. I have several disc's out in my back and have chronic back pain. I am nervous that I won't recognize the correct symptoms and end up bleeding out. The UW ER doea nothing for back pain so I would never go into the ER for back pain. Are there other symptoms that a person would recognize?
