    Abstract:
    A 72-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease was admitted with right upper quadrant pain, hypotension, an elevated bilirubin, and leukocytosis. A computed tomography scan showed a dilated common bile duct and an associated 4.5 cm gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm. The pseudoaneurysm was coil embolized successfully while maintaining dual access from the brachial and femoral arteries using the "body floss" technique. Subsequently, the patient underwent endoscopic treatment for her obstructive jaundice. We report on the technical aspects of this case and review the literature.
