Recurrent Hemobilia Due to Right Hepatic Artery Pseudoaneurysm.

Hemobilia is a potentially life-threatening clinical issue, the etiology of which iatrogenesis is playing increasingly more prominent role. Nowadays the most frequent etiology of hemobilia has shifted toward iatrogenesis owing to increasingly more frequent performance of liver procedures, either open or minimally invasive. Here we report a rare case of recurrent hemobilia after transarterial embolization. A man, aged 57 years, presented with Quincke's triad after cholecystectomy. Computed tomography imaging revealed a pseudoaneurysm of the right hepatic artery. Transarterial embolization failed, and hemobilia recurred. The patient underwent open ligation of the right hepatic artery. Transarterial embolization is a definitive treatment of hemobilia due to vascular issues. The choice of embolizing agent is crucial in transarterial embolization.
