Splenic artery aneurysm causes. A splenic artery aneurysm can be the result of atherosclerosis, mycotic infection, blunt trauma, Behcetâs disease, polyarteritis nodosa, chronic pancreatitis, portal hypertension, (repeated) pregnancy and liver transplant recipients.
Aneurysms of the hepatic artery are uncommon. They tend to be saccular and multiple. Causes include infection, arteriosclerosis, trauma, and vasculitis. Untreated aneurysms may cause death by rupturing into the common bile duct (causing hemobilia), the peritoneum (causing peritonitis), or adjacent hollow viscera. Hemobilia may cause jaundice, upper GI bleeding, and abdominal pain in the right upper quadrant.
