Hepatic artery pseudoaneurysms are an uncommon complication of percutaneous biliary drainage catheter insertion. The authors report a case of a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm following percutaneous internal-external biliary drain insertion. This led to massive haemobilia when the catheter was removed and presented clinically as life-threatening upper gastrointestinal bleed. The clinical and imag...

Background: Pseudoaneurysm of the cystic artery is a rare complication following cholecystitis and its presentation as upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage (UGIH) is even more rare. Thirteen such cases have been reported with only 2 of them presented with UGIH alone. Case presentation: We report a case of cystic artery pseudoaneurysm in a 43-year-old woman following an acute attack of cholecystiti...

Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms are uncommonly encountered in vascular surgery practice, but they typically require repair. Historically, they have been repaired with open aneurysmorrhaphy, bypass and exclusion, or simple ligation. More recently, endovascular repair with coil embolization and stent graft exclusion have been advocated. We present a repair of an SMA...

Pseudoaneurisms are arterial wounds that affect all layers of an artery; although very rare they mostly lethal and most them iatrogenic. Herein, we present two different cases hepatic artery pseudoaneurysms derived from previous surgeries which were assessed by computed tomography angiographies consequent conservative endovascular approaches with arteriographies, posterior cannulations the plac...

Hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm (HAP) incidence is rising due to more common use of endoscopic and percutaneous hepatic interventions. HAP is potentially fatal, as it could lead to sudden life-threatening hemorrhage. HAP can be intrahepatic or extrahepatic. On computed tomography angiogram (CTA) and magnetic resonance angiogram (MRA), HAP follows blood pool on multiphasic examination, with brisk ...

Aims: Hydatid cyst disease is a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Peculiarly if it's resulted from ruptured hepatic artery aneurysm in the hydatid cavity which fistulated into duodenum. We here present case pseudoaneurysm due to complicated with synchronous duodenal fistula. 
 Case: A 45-year-old male was admitted emergency department hematemesis and hematochezia. The patient ...
