title: Computed tomography in the demonstration of hepatic pseudoaneurysm with hemobilia.
abstract: Pseudoaneurysm with hemobilia is an infrequent complication of blunt hepatic trauma. The definitive test for demonstrating an aneurysm is hepatic angiography. The potential value of contrast enhanced computed tomography in defining the surgical approach and demonstrating coexistent hematoma and abscess is illustrated in a case of posttraumatic hemobilia.
