ABSTRACT
A 32-year-old lady presented with severe hematemesis and melena after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Initial ultrasonography and spiral CT suggested a vascular lesion in the gall bladder fossa. Selective hepatic angiography confirmed the presence of a pseudoaneurysm close to the surgical clip and filling through the right hepatic artery. This was treated with coil embolization, resulting in cessation of hematemesis and amelioration of symptoms.
