When a communication occurs between an artery and a pancreatic pseudocyst, the pseudocyst becomes a pseudoaneurysm. Pancreatic pseudoaneurysms are primarily found in patients with chronic pancreatitis. Fistulization of a pseudoaneurysm into the main pancreatic duct results in ductal hemorrhage. Pancreatectomy, ligation of the affected vessel, or intraarterial embolization have all been used to treat pancreatic pseudoaneurysms. We have presented a patient with chronic pancreatitis, ductal stones and pancreatic pseudoaneurysm. The pseudoaneurysm was diagnosed by doppler ultrasonography. The splenic artery was the affected vessel. Patient was treated with ligation of splenic artery, excision of the mass and external drainage without any complication.
Keywords: Chronic pancreatitis, Pancreatic pseudocyst
