EUS-guided treatment for visceral artery aneurysm
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a procedure using an endoscope with ultrasound (EUS) to block blood flow to an aneurysm in an artery inside your belly. It may be an option if you have symptoms or if the aneurysm is large or growing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You have a visceral artery aneurysm that was found on a CT, MRI, or EUS scan.
- You have symptoms from the aneurysm (like belly pain), or it is in a certain artery (such as stomach, pancreas, or bowel), or it is larger than 2 cm in certain arteries (like spleen, kidney, or liver), or it is growing quickly (more than 0.5 cm per year), or you are a woman of childbearing age.
- You cannot have standard X-ray dye treatment (for example, due to allergy or pregnancy).
- The aneurysm must be reachable and seeable with the EUS scope.
- You are healthy enough for an endoscopic procedure (no severe bleeding risk, no active infection, no major organ failure).

This trial studies an endovascular (through blood vessels) repair technique for an unruptured enlarged artery in the belly called an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). It may help doctors compare outcomes using a randomized approach and structured follow-up.
This trial compares two procedures (ESAR and FEVAR) to repair an abdominal aortic aneurysm in people whose anatomy makes the usual repair hard. It may help find a safer, more durable option for patients with challenging aortic neck features.
This study compares two ways to treat an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the lower part of the aorta). It looks at whether the newer approach works as well as standard EVAR in people whose aneurysm has a wider neck that may be harder to treat.
This trial studies a less invasive stent procedure that blocks blood flow into certain large aneurysms in the chest-to-abdomen or upper abdomen area. It may help prevent aneurysm growth and rupture while avoiding the risks of open surgery.
This trial tests a special stent called Derivo to treat aneurysms in arteries of the abdomen. It aims to see if this device safely blocks blood flow to the aneurysm and helps prevent rupture.
This trial tests whether a special cell treatment can help stabilize a large abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) instead of just watching it grow. You may qualify if your aneurysm is at least 5 cm wide and you are scheduled for standard endovascular repair.
