  • Title: Inadvertent pancreatic embolization as a complication of hepatic carcinoid treatment--computed tomography appearance.
    Author: Mendelson DS, Rubinoff SW, Dan SJ, Jones RB.
    Journal: Clin Imaging; 1989 Sep; 13(3):212-4. PubMed ID: 2819585.
    Abstract:
    A patient with hepatic metastases from a carcinoid tumor was treated by hepatic artery embolization and developed pancreatitis. A subsequent computed tomography scan (CT) demonstrated evidence of pancreatic embolization. The CT findings are reviewed as well as the probable mechanism of the development of pancreatitis.
