Abstract:
We report two patients with hemobilia caused by hepatic artery aneurism that ruptured to the biliary tract. In the first patient, the diagnosis was made during an exploratory laparotomy. In the second patient, the aneurism was diagnosed with a selective hepatic artery arteriography and embolized during the procedure. The evolution of both patients was satisfactory.
