Overview

Case report highlights management of gastrointestinal bleeding from gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm in pancreatitis, indicating the need for urgent intervention.

Key Points

  • Urgent coil embolization successfully controlled massive gastrointestinal bleeding from a gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm in a patient with pancreatitis.
  • The patient experienced life-threatening intra-abdominal hemorrhage, emphasizing early recognition of this rare but serious condition.
  • Computed tomography angiogram was crucial in identifying the bleeding source after initial imaging suggested a pancreatic pseudocyst.
  • This case underlines the necessity of multidisciplinary management of pseudoaneurysms linked to pancreatitis to prevent severe complications.
