A Common Hepatic Artery Aneurysm Mimicking A Duodenal Submucosal Tumor Presenting as Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding: A Case Report

چکیده
Hepatic artery aneurysm was firstly described at autopsy in 1809. It can present as a duodenal submucosal lesion caused by extra-luminal compression. Most cases of common hepatic artery aneurysms with external compression of duodenum are asymptomatic until rupture with intestinal hemorrhage. Such cases had been reported with poor prognosis if diagnosis and treatment were delayed. Hence, the management of this complication needs early diagnosis and timely intervention. Here, we reported a rare case of common hepatic artery aneurysm mimicking a duodenal Abstract

Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasis associated with hepatic artery aneurysm has only once been recorded in the literature (Graham, Eiseman, and Pryor, 1964). This case is reported because the concurrence of these conditions, together with gastric and duodenal ulcers, serves to illustrate difficulties in the management of a patient with a bleeding diathesis who has four possible causes of gas...
