ABSTRACT

We present a case of a 28 years old young male who was admitted with complaints of pain in abdomen, black colored stools and hematemesis. His ultrasonography of abdomen and pelvis was suggestive of calcific pancreatitis. Digital subtraction angiography and gastroscopy revealed active pseudohemobilia from pseudoaneurysm of left gastric artery. The bleeder was uneventfully embolized with by coiling.

Keywords: Pseudohemobilia, Fibrocalcific chronic pancreatitis, young male, anemia, hematemesis, black stools, coiling.
