ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

The authors report a case of post-traumatic hepatic artery and portal vein pseudoaneurysms caused by blunt abdominal trauma, with multiple organ injuries including liver laceration. Abdominal spiral CT, CDS and DSA were performed to confirm the diagnosis. Both pseudoaneurysms were treated successfully with selective transcatheter embolization.
