Left hepatic artery accessory from the left gastric artery. The embolization of the right hepatic artery with detachable spirals of 5 mm / 20 cm is practiced. Subsequent arteriographies demonstrate occlusion of the aneurysm without repermeabilization of the left hepatic artery. Internalized external biliary drainage is practiced. Control arteriography demonstrates revascularization of the right hepatic lobe in the left hepatic artery, but associating the repermeabilization of the aneurysmal sac in the left hepatic artery. Surgery is decided. Resection of the aneurysm with segmental resection of the portal vein, with T-T anastomosis by interposition of cadaveric venous graft.
