An abdominal contrast-enhanced CT scan showed an extensive hematoma (3 \u00d7 4 cm2 in size) located intra-abdominally, adjacent to the duodenojejunal area, with hyperdensity around the duodenum, positioned inferior to the pancreas (30\u201359 HU). Moreover, the CT scan also revealed an enhancing lesion as a pseudoaneurysm of the inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery, measuring 5 \u00d7 8 \u00d7 8 mm3 with active bleeding and associated hematoma. Following these investigations of the abdominal area, a decision was made to proceed with an endovascular intervention within the interventional radiology department. With the patient under conscious sedation, via a right common femoral artery approach, the superior mesenteric artery was catheterized. While injecting the contrast agent to obtain a better working projection, the pseudoaneurysm ruptured, and acute extravasation of the contrast agent was noted, followed by injection of a mixture of 1 mL Glubran 2 with 2 mL Lipiodol until complete obliteration of the pseudoaneurysm was obtained. The patient was hemodynamically stable at the end of the procedure and was discharged 6 days later in a good condition without active bleeding signs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics13061090","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,14]],"date-time":"2023-03-14T02:33:36Z","timestamp":1678761216000},"page":"1090","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Transarterial Embolization of Ruptured Pancreaticoduodenal Artery Pseudoaneurysm Related to Chronic Pancreatitis"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Lucian","family":"M\u0103rginean","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Mure\u0219 County Emergency Hospital, 540136 Targu Mures, Romania"},{"name":"Doctoral School of Medicine and Pharmacy, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Sciences and Technology of Targu Mures, 540142 Targu Mures, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adrian Vasile","family":"Mure\u0219an","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic of Vascular Surgery, Mures County Emergency Hospital, 540136 Targu Mures, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of Targu Mures, 540139 Targu Mures, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1664-8130","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emil Marian","family":"Arb\u0103na\u0219i","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Doctoral School of Medicine and Pharmacy, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Sciences and Technology of Targu Mures, 540142 Targu Mures, Romania"},{"name":"Clinic of Vascular Surgery, Mures County Emergency Hospital, 540136 Targu Mures, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of Targu Mures, 540139 Targu Mures, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C\u0103t\u0103lin Mircea","family":"Co\u0219arc\u0103","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic of Vascular Surgery, Mures County Emergency Hospital, 540136 Targu Mures, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Anatomy, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of Targu Mures, 540139 Targu Mures, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1281-3749","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eliza Mihaela","family":"Arb\u0103na\u0219i","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Pharmacy, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of Targu Mures, 540139 Targu Mures, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Eliza","family":"Russu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic of Vascular Surgery, Mures County Emergency Hospital, 540136 Targu Mures, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of Targu Mures, 540139 Targu Mures, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rares Cristian","family":"Filep","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Mure\u0219 County Emergency Hospital, 540136 Targu Mures, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R\u00e9ka","family":"Kaller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Doctoral School of Medicine and Pharmacy, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Sciences and Technology of Targu Mures, 540142 Targu Mures, Romania"},{"name":"Clinic of Vascular Surgery, Mures County Emergency Hospital, 540136 Targu Mures, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of Targu Mures, 540139 Targu Mures, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"E71","article-title":"Abdominal and Pelvic Aneurysms and Pseudoaneurysms: Imaging Review with Clinical, Radiologic, and Treatment Correlation","volume":"33","author":"Jesinger","year":"2013","journal-title":"Radiogr.
