In most cases, the patient presents with gastrointestinal bleeding or hemoperitoneum. Here, we present a case with a post-cholecystectomy right hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm (PSA) induced by a generalized seizure. A 39-year-old male was sent to the emergency room with a generalized seizure and a loss of consciousness for approximately 5 min. Diffuse abdominal pain was complained of after consciousness returned. The surgical history of LC 13 days prior was mentioned. Abdominal computer tomography (CT) revealed a lobulated fluid accumulation in the gallbladder fossa with prominent fatty stranding and suspected biloma formation. After admission for one week, sharp abdominal pain was observed. Abdominal CT angiography revealed a right hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm. Transcatheter arterial embolization was performed with a total of seven platinum coils. In conclusion, it is important for doctors to take pseudoaneurysm into consideration in the patient who presents with seizure attack after receiving LC. Late discovery of PSA when it is ruptured can lead to fatal conditions, such as severe hemoperitoneum.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/medicina58050568","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,23]],"date-time":"2022-04-23T21:39:45Z","timestamp":1650749985000},"page":"568","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Post-Cholecystectomy Right Hepatic Artery Pseudoaneurysm Induced by Generalized Seizure: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"58","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2918-4408","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yueh-Hsun","family":"Tsai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Tri-Service General Hospital, National Defense Medical Center, Taipei 11490, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hao-Ming","family":"Chang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of General Surgery, Department of Surgery, Tri-Service General Hospital, National Defense Medical Center, Taipei 11490, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"794","DOI":"10.2214\/AJR.07.3485","article-title":"Laparoscopic cholecystectomy: Postoperative imaging","volume":"191","author":"Thurley","year":"2008","journal-title":"AJR Am.
