“…According to Green et al [7] , the occurrence of these aneurysms is consecutive to pancreatitis in which, the autodigestion of the gland by enzymatic activation extends to the walls of the peripancreatic vessels and gives false aneurysms. The interrogation did not report in the patient's history a previous pancreatitis picture unless it went unnoticed.…”

Gastroduodenal artery aneurysms have a low incidence of less than 1.5% of all splanchnic aneurysms. Rupture is frequent and life-threatening. The diagnosis is made by CT scan and by coeliac angiography, which also plays a therapeutic role in stable or stabilized patients. Surgery remains the treatment of choice in case of hemodynamic instability. We reviewed the case of a ruptured aneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery mimicking a tumor of the pancreas’ head in a patient who died following a hemorrhagic shock.

Background: Visceral artery aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms are uncommon phenomena with a high mortality rate in cases of rupture. These rare vascular pathologies are usually asymptomatic and are therefore generally discovered incidentally on computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging examination. Current therapeutic options have trended toward a minimally invasive approach because of evolving endovascular treatment options, with open operations typically reserved for cases of intraabdominal hemorrhage. Case Report: We describe a case of gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm manifesting as obstructive jaundice and pancreatitis because of extrahepatic compression of the common bile duct and pancreatic duct by mass effect. Open repair was ultimately required secondary to arterial anatomy that was not amenable to any endovascular treatment approach. Conclusion: While endovascular options are the preferred treatment modality for visceral artery aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms, some cases require definitive open repair for a variety of reasons, including unsuitable anatomy.
