Abstract

-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) packing of a large gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm after distal pancreatectomy in a patient with a history of subtotal esophagectomy and gastric tube reconstruction. The pseudoaneurysm was considered to be caused by direct injury to the gastroduodenal artery (GDA). However, embolization of the GDA was not possible in this case because due to prior esophageal surgery, the main blood vessel supplying the gastric tube was the right epigastric artery from the GDA. Packing a pseudoaneurysm with NBCA is a treatment option when preservation of the parent artery is required.
