OBJECTIVES: @entity438 ( @entity438 ) is usually asymptomatic, but can be fatal if it @entity397 . Portal @entity101 @entity1 with varix or @entity381 are sometimes complicated by @entity438 . However, there have been no large-scale clinical studies regarding whether @entity1575 itself is associated with @entity439 regardless of varix or @entity381 . METHODS: In the present study, we retrospectively analyzed 303 cirrhotic @entity1 examined with arteriography. The diagnosis and characteristics of SAAs were determined, and the relation with @entity4558 artery diameter was evaluated. RESULTS: Nine @entity1 (2.97%) had 12 complicated SAAs. The @entity439 , which measured 4-22 mm in diameter, were all saccular, and occurred commonly in the @entity4558 hilum (50.0%). A correlation was noted between @entity4558 artery diameter and @entity439 diameter (R(2)=0.706). @entity439 growth was strongly associated with an increase in diameter of the @entity4558 artery trunk (R(2)=0.705), which is closely related to arterial flow. CONCLUSIONS: @entity438 is considered a complication of @entity82 . The @entity101 diameter may result in @entity438 enlargement and @entity397 . Elective procedures should be considered based on the follow-up of main trunk or diameter of the @entity4558 artery in addition to @entity438 size, a known risk factor of @entity1756 .
