Hemobilia from rupture of pseudoaneurysm on right hepatic artery after cholecystectomy

Hemobilia is a case in which the bleeding results from a connection between the vascular and biliary systems. Historically it was associated with external trauma both penetrating and blunt. With the rise of medical interventional techniques on biliary systems, iatrogenic hemobilia comprises over 70% of all cases. Although it is more common in PTBD, PTC and liver biopsies, we present a case of pseudoaneurysm of the right hepatic artery leading to hemobilia after rupturing into the biliary tract. Iatrogenic etiologies are currently the leading causes of hemobilia, which is a life-threatening case.
