Abstract
Hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm (HAP) is a serious rare life-threatening complication of Gastrointestinal surgeries that is often overlooked in diagnostic evaluation due to its rarity. We present a case of 71years female, with a surgical history of gastric sleeve surgery, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and cholecystectomy, presenting with features of upper GI bleeding. Multiple diagnostic modalities were used and finally Magnetic Resonance Mesenteric Angiogram was able to pinpoint the location of the GI bleed as a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm. Primary surgical repair used to be the mainstay treatment option for managing visceral aneurysms. However, due to advances in technology, embolization as well as implantation of covered stent grafts have become the preferred treatment for such lesions.
