Overview

Case report highlights successful endovascular embolisation for a life-threatening pseudoaneurysm, indicating the importance of imaging.

Key Points

  • Endovascular coil embolisation successfully treated a pseudoaneurysm in a patient with chronic pancreatitis and epigastric pain.
  • Digital subtraction angiography confirmed the pseudoaneurysm, which is a rare but life-threatening complication of chronic pancreatitis.
  • Imaging modalities like CT and angiography are critical for prompt diagnosis, while postprocedure surveillance is essential to monitor for complications.
  • The patient was discharged on a low-fat diet and resumed anticoagulation therapy after stabilization, emphasizing aftercare importance.
