Pseudoaneurysms complicating pancreatitis: detection by CT

JW Burke, SJ Erickson, CD Kellum, CJ Tegtmeyer, BR Williamson and MF Hansen

Complications of pancreatitis such as pseudocyst formation and abscess are well known to radiologists. Secondary formation of pseudoaneurysms has not been emphasized in the radiologic literature. The great morbidity and mortality associated with pseudoaneurysms emphasize the importance of early detection. Three patients are described whose angiographically proved pseudoaneurysms were demonstrated on contrast material-enhanced abdominal CT scans obtained for evaluation of pancreatitis. A homogeneously enhancing structure within or adjacent to a pancreatic pseudocyst or contiguous with a vascular structure should be considered highly suspicious for an associated pseudoaneurysm.
