title: Common hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm secondary to pancreatitis. Direct percutaneous embolization.
abstract: We report a patient with a common hepatic artery pseudoaneurism secondary to pancreatitis treated with direct percutaneous embolization as an alternative when transcatheter embolotherapy cannot be performed. Examination of the specimen revealed that the pseudoaneurism was completely trombosed with signs of embolization of its lumen.
