Outflow of N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate into the Pancreatic Duct: Transcatheter Arterial Embolization for Hemosuccus Pancreaticus.

A 54-year-old Japanese woman, hospitalized for recurrent chronic alcoholic pancreatitis, manifested bloody stools. An esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed active bleeding from the papilla of Vater. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) revealed a pseudoaneurysm in the pancreatic pseudocyst (hemosuccus pancreaticus).

Transcatheter arterial embolization for initial hemostasis in a hemodynamically unstable patient with mesenteric hemorrhage: A case report.

Surgical treatment of mesenteric injuries is necessary to control hemorrhage, manage bowel injuries, and evaluate bowel perfusion. It has recently been suggested that some patients can be managed with transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) for initial hemostasis. We present a hemodynamically unstable patient who was initially managed by TAE for traumatic mesenteric hemorrhage.
