Abstract
Hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of amebic or pyogenic liver abscesses, and it is generally diagnosed because of hemobilia due to rupture of the aneurysm into the biliary tract. The authors describe a case of vascular complication in a patient affected by amebic liver abscess. Pseudoaneurysm was diagnosed and resolved without hemobilia.Entities:
