Inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) aneurysms represent the minority of visceral aneurysm presentations. A 57-year-old female was admitted with a symptomatic IMA aneurysm secondary to atherosclerotic disease. She was treated with open excision which revealed a contained ruptured of a true aneurysm. This case highlights the challenges of an accurate preoperative diagnosis of IMA aneurysm and the correct position of the recent guidelines on visceral aneurysms issued by the Society of Vascular Surgery (SVS).

Multiple Aneurysmal Arterial Disease (MAD) is an extremely rare arterial vascular condition and is produced by an abnormal alteration of smooth muscle cells and neutrophils, producing a multiple-aneurysmal degeneration. We present the case of a 36-year-old patient with a MAD in the cerebral territory and extremities with no surgical indication; however, with an aneurysm of the right inferior renal segmental artery, inferior mesenteric artery, left common iliac artery, and right internal iliac artery with surgical indication. An open approach with single-stage surgical repair, including graft interposition, bypass, exclusion, and vascular reimplantation, was performed.

Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) is a widely utilized minimally invasive technique originally developed for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures. It has since expanded to treat osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures, pathologic vertebral fractures resulting from primary or secondary spinal tumors, and traumatic spinal fractures. Despite its benefits, PVP is associated with significant complications, the most common of which is bone cement leakage.

Introduction: In colostomy-related complications, variceal hemorrhage particularly induced by cirrhosis and portal hypertension is seldom encountered. The onset of peristome variceal hemorrhage necessitates swift and effective intervention to prevent potentially life-threatening outcomes such as hemorrhagic shock and recurrent stoma bleeding.
Case Presentation: This report details a case of repeated varicose vein hemorrhage around the stoma in a patient with liver cirrhosis.

Introduction: Graft-versus-host disease is a serious complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and is a major cause of death post-transplantation. Approximately 50% of acute graft-versus-host disease patients do not respond to systemic steroids and their prognosis is poor regardless of the treatment. This study describes our experience with pediatric patients diagnosed with steroid-refractory graft-versus-host disease who received intra-mesenteric steroid treatment.

Background: The quality of life after surgery for diverticular disease is mainly linked to the presence and severity of postoperative defecatory disorders. These symptoms are frequently related to the sigmoid and rectal denervation following the arterial ligation. The preservation of Inferior Mesenteric Artery performing colorectal resections seems to reduce denervation, which led to a better defecatory function.
