    Author: El Hajj II, Sherman S, Pyko M, Lehman GA.
    Journal: Dig Liver Dis; 2017 Dec; 49(12):1336-1337. PubMed ID: 28958788.
    Abstract:
    Arterial vascular complication from endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is exceedingly rare. This report describes a life threatening hemobilia, from a pseudoaneurysm of the right hepatic artery (RHA), which occurred post ERCP. The pseudoaneurysm and the active bleed were diagnosed by selective angiography of the RHA, and successfully treated with stenting.
