Abstract
Gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysms are a rare but potentially fatal condition. They represent 1.5% of all visceral artery pseudoanurysms. We are reporting a case of a 36yr old male with history of chronic alcoholism that presented with haematemesis. Patient had no past medical history of pancreatitis. Patient was diagnosed to have a gastroduodenal pseudoaneurysm, which was managed by angiographic coil embolization.
