Abstract

38-year old, drunken man had fell from the window and was admited to the hospital with multiple limb fractures and suspicion of traumatic liver injury. Post-contrast CT examination proved the pseudoaneurysm arising caudally from the proper hepatic artery. The indicated angiography should specify location and character of the pseudoaneurysm and allow its subsequent embolization. After placing the catheter tip into its neck the pseudoaneurysm was successfully closed by metal coils and mixture of tissue glue (Histoacryl) and contrast medium (Lipiodol Ultrafluid).
