Hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm (HAP) is mostly encountered secondary to trauma or iatrogenic causes. HAP associated with cholangitic liver abscess is a rare complication. We present a case of gallstone disease and choledocholithiasis who developed moderate cholangitis and a liver abscess. A small HAP was detected incidentally on a biphasic CT done to evaluate the biliary system. Repeat CT after management with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and antibiotics showed resolution of cholangitic abscess with spontaneous thrombosis of HAP.

Intraperitoneal Bleeding

Hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm is an infrequently encountered entity that is usually seen secondary to trauma or surgical procedures. The clinical presentation is often due to complications such as massive intrahepatic or intraperitoneal bleeding as a result of rupture of the pseudoaneurysm into the biliary tree or peritoneal cavity, respectively. Hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm, associated with a liver abscess, has very rarely been described in the literature. We present the imaging features of a case of liver abscess associated with a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm and complicated by rupture and formation of an arteriovenous fistula. The case was successfully managed by percutaneous endovascular embolization. The association between a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm and a liver abscess must not be overlooked, bearing in mind the potentially fatal associated complications which can be averted or treated by timely intervention.

Abstract Background The formation of a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm in a liver implant is a rare but potentially fatal complication. Fistulization of such pseudoaneurysms into the bile duct is sporadic. The most common causes of hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm are infection at the anastomosis site, inadequate surgical technique, and an iatrogenic origin due to minimally invasive procedures. Currently, there is no standardized treatment in neither of these complications, with surgery and various endovascular procedures among the alternatives available. None of these therapeutic approaches has demonstrated a significant increase in long-term liver implant preservation. Case presentation A 56-year-old man with a two-month liver transplant presented with massive upper gastrointestinal bleeding and hemobilia shortly after the performance of an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography due to the presence of a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm with fistulization into the bile duct. This case report describes the successful treatment of both complications, the hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm and the arterio-biliary fistula, using a covered coronary stent placed in the hepatic artery. A year and a half after treatment, the patient maintains a preserved liver implant and a patent hepatic artery. Conclusions Treatment of a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm with fistulization into bile duct using a covered coronary stent allowed the correct repair of the defect, adequate hemorrhage control, and long-term liver implant preservation.
