Abstract
The third case of hepatic artery aneurysm successfully treated by prosthetic grafting is reported. This appears to be the forty-third patient to survive surgical treatment for this condition. Hepatic artery aneurysms has a poor prognosis and operative treatment is justified when the diagnosis is made. While ligation will be required in some instances, excision of the aneurysm with restoration of arterial blood-flow to the liver is to be preferred.Keywords
