  • Title: Hemosuccus pancreatitis due to a ruptured splenic artery pseudoaneurysm - diagnosis and endovascular management.
    Author: Mohan SC, Srinivasan S, Paul SPL, Chung R, Natarajan SK.
    Journal: J Radiol Case Rep; 2020 May; 14(5):7-15. PubMed ID: 33082922.
    Abstract:
    Hemosuccus pancreatitis is a rare and potentially fatal cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding characterized by hemorrhage from the ampulla of Vater via the pancreatic duct. In this case, a patient with chronic pancreatitis on a background of chronic alcoholism is found to have a splenic artery pseudoaneurysm that was bleeding into the pancreatic duct. This was identified on contrast-enhanced computed tomography imaging and successfully managed via microcoil embolization.
