title: [Hemobilia as a rare vascular complication of chronic pancreatitis].
abstract: Hemobilia is one of the possible causes of upper GI tract bleeding of unknown origin. However hemobilia is usually iatrogenic or traumatic, it can originate as a result of inflammation or may be caused by tumors. Authors present the case of a 46-year-old man, who developed hemobilia as a vascular complication of chronic pancreatitis. Diagnosis was proved on angiography and surgical intervention was necessary because of the life-threatening hemorrhage. Cholecystectomy, T-drainage and cystoduodenostomy were performed. We describe symptoms, diagnostic and therapeutic approches and compare it to recent literature.
