Pseudoaneurysms complicating pancreatitis: detection by CT.

Abstract: Complications of pancreatitis such as pseudocyst formation and abscess are well known to radiologists. Secondary formation of pseudoaneurysms has not been emphasized in the radiologic literature. The great morbidity and mortality associated with pseudoaneurysms emphasize the importance of early detection. Three patients are described whose angiographically proved pseudoaneurysms were demonstrated on contrast material-enhanced abdominal CT scans obtained for evaluation of pancreatitis. A homogeneously enhancing… Show more

“…The demonstration of a homogeneously enhancing structure within or adjacent to a pseudocyst or contiguous with a vascular structure is highly suggestive of an associated pseudoaneurysm [8]. However, adequate visualization of the pancreatic area with sonography can be problematic in obese patients and in patients with an associated ileus.…”

“…Psödoanevrizma rüptürü kronik pankreatitin çok hızlı gelişen bir komplikasyonudur. Pankreatik psödokistin komşu arteri erode etmesi veya psödoanevrizma rüptürünün mortalitesi oldukça yüksek olup çeşitli kaynaklarda %12-50 olarak bildirilmektedir (1,2,4,7,8,9). Cerrahi tedavi uygulanmayan olgularda mortalite oranı %90'a kadar ulaşmaktadır.…”
