Abstract
Arterial aneurysms of visceral branches are rare, even more if they occur on the superior mesenteric artery and its branches (among which ileal branches). Rupture is its major complication, thus rapid treatment is mandatory. CT angiography is the gold standard for diagnosis and therapeutic planification. Usual treatment is surgical, even though percutaneous embolization can be safely and precisely performed. Use of coils with sandwich technique is preferred.
