Visceral arterial pseudoaneurysms are uncommon vascular abnormalities affecting renal or splanchnic arteries. They can be complications of chronic pancreatitis, blunt or penetrating abdominal trauma, or surgical, endoscopic and interventional radiological procedures. Visceral arterial pseudoaneurysms can be life-threatening because of hemorrhagic shock secondary to rupture and massive bleeding. We report an unusual case of rupture of a pseudoaneurysm of a digiunal artery in the pancreatic duct.
