Implication

Case report describes gastrointestinal bleeding in an elderly male post-pancreatico-duodenectomy, suggesting severe complications from arterial interventions.

Key Points

To highlight the complications associated with postoperative bleeding from GDA pseudoaneurysms following pancreatico-duodenectomy.
Case report of an elderly male after pancreatico-duodenectomy
Immediate CT angiogram and endovascular coil embolisation performed
Placement of a covered stent in the common hepatic artery
Follow-up with Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and CTA to assess complications
Postembolisation, bleeding initially stopped but recurred 2 months later
Endoscopic retrieval of coils was unsuccessful, resulting in spontaneous egress
Findings underscore the clinical relevance of monitoring for complications in such patients
