    The study analyzed 220 patients with splenic artery aneurysms who underwent embolization using either the sandwich or mushroom technique.

  • 2

    Both embolization techniques achieved a technical success rate of 100%, with no reported 30-day mortality or aneurysm recanalization.

  • 3

    The mushroom technique resulted in shorter procedure times, reduced hospital stays, lower costs, and fewer incidences of post-embolization syndrome compared to the sandwich technique.

  • 4

    Univariate and multivariate analyses identified the number of aneurysms and the embolization method as independent risk factors for post-embolization syndrome.

  • 5

    The study concluded that the mushroom technique provides similar short-term outcomes to the sandwich technique while offering additional benefits.
