    Author: Turaga KK, Amirlak B, Davis RE, Yousef K, Richards A, Fitzgibbons RJ.
    Journal: Surg Laparosc Endosc Percutan Tech; 2006 Feb; 16(1):36-8. PubMed ID: 16552377.
    Abstract:
    Pseudoaneurysm involving the hepatic arterial system is a recognized complication of biliary surgery. The standard nonsurgical treatment is coil embolization. We present a case of a patient who underwent coil embolization of a pseudoaneurysm and subsequently presented with ascending cholangitis due to migration of coils into the common bile duct.
