Acute pancreatitis with hemobilia following percutaneous liver biopsy.
Hemobilia following liver biopsy is rare and acute pancreatitis associated with hemobilia in such a situation is rarer. We report a 55-year-old man with ulcerative colitis and hepatitis C-positive liver disease who developed acute pancreatitis following liver biopsy. Surgical removal of blood clots from the biliary tree led to recovery.
