A Rare Case of Jejunal Pseudoaneurysm Presenting as Acute Small Bowel Obstruction After Blunt Trauma: Discussion, Management Dilemmas, and a Review of Relevant Literature.

Visceral artery aneurysms (VAAs) and visceral artery pseudoaneurysms (VAPAs) are often found incidentally through imaging of a patient presenting with vague symptoms of abdominal pain, hematochezia, hematemesis, and melena. Due to the asymptomatic nature, the etiology is often unknown. However, suspicion for VAA and VAPA should remain high for those presenting with symptoms listed above after trauma or pancreatitis. Here we discuss a case of traumatic ileocolic pseudoaneurysm that has only been discussed a handful of times in the literature.
