A Ruptured Pseudoaneurysm of an Anomalous Gastroduodenal Artery: A Rare Presentation

Gastroduodenal artery (GDA) anomalies are a rare entity. Rupture of such anomalies can present with a diagnostic challenge. In this report, we describe a case of ruptured pseudoaneurysm of an anomalous GDA arising directly from the aorta presenting with recurrent abdominal pain and anemia. The diagn...

description Gastroduodenal artery (GDA) anomalies are a rare entity. Rupture of such anomalies can present with a diagnostic challenge. In this report, we describe a case of ruptured pseudoaneurysm of an anomalous GDA arising directly from the aorta presenting with recurrent abdominal pain and anemia. The diagnosis was made on computed tomography scan which showed acute retroperitoneal fluid collection. Further angiographic intervention highlighted the anomalous GDA arising directly from the aorta.
