Investigations did not reveal any particular pancreatitis etiology. Computed tomography of the abdomen with contrast showed splenic artery pseudoaneurysm along with findings suggestive of acute pancreatitis. Upper and lower endoscopies failed to identify gastrointestinal the bleed source. The patient underwent intervention radiology embolization of the aneurysm sac with multiple coils via right retrograde common femoral artery\u2013celiac access. The patient was discharged with a plan for capsule endoscopy in outpatient setting. <\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Splenic artery pseudoaneurysm is a life-threatening complication and carries a high mortality rate if left untreated.
