[Post-traumatic hemobilia caused by arteriobiliary fistula. A case report and review of the literature].
One new case of post-traumatic hematobilia due to an arteriobilary fistula is reported. This etiology is relatively rare, and its diagnosis is sometimes difficult if the three signs: pain, bleeding and jaundice are not observed. The most effective paraclinical examination still is selective arteriogrpahy, which makes the diagnosis possible, accurately locates the fistula and sometimes allows hyperselective embolization, as it did in this case. The use of embolization for the treatment of post-traumatic hematobilia due to an arteriobiliary fistula reduces operative mortality for this disease, which still has a poor prognosis.
