We report a patient with Gastroduodenal artery (GDA) pseudoaneurysm of tuberculous aetiology, who presented with massive hematemesis and who was successfully managed with transarterial steel coil embolization. Pseudoaneurysms are a rare but potentially fatal complication of tuberculosis and hence early recognition and management of this complication is important. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report of a GDA pseudoaneurysm resulting from tuberculosis.
我们报告了一例因结核病因导致胃十二指肠动脉(GDA)假性动脉瘤的患者,该患者出现大量呕血,并通过经动脉钢圈栓塞成功治疗。假性动脉瘤是结核病罕见但可能致命的并发症,因此早期识别和处理这一并发症很重要。据我们所知,这是首例由结核病导致的胃十二指肠动脉假性动脉瘤报告。
