Abstract
Vascular injuries following cholecystectomy are a known entity though the incidence is low. More frequently we are seeing cases of right hepatic artery pseudo aneurysm post cholecystectomy after the advent of the laparoscopic approach. We report a case of multiple right hepatic artery aneurysms as a complication of cholecystectomy in a 71-year-old patient. The diagnosis was confirmed by angiogram, and the patient was treated successfully with coil embolisation. Though it is a rare complication, early diagnosis and treatment of postoperative pseudo aneurysm is essential to prevent life threatening bleeding.
