Abstract:
Hepatic artery aneurysms are rare occurrences with diverse etiologies. We present a case of a right hepatic artery aneurysm, which was diagnosed at endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) and treated angiographically. This is the first report where ERC has been critical in delineating the aneurysmal cavity, suggesting the diagnosis and prompting emergency intervention.
