  Fig. 1 Computed tomography angiography: volume rendering reconstruction showing 10 × 4 cm giant aneurysm involving common, proper, right and left hepatic arteries, with short proximal neck at origin from celiac trunk.

• 

  Fig. 2 Celiac trunk angiography showing complete exclusion of giant hepatic artery aneurysm. Liquid agent (Onyx) used for embolization is evident at origin of right hepatic, left hepatic, and gastroduodenal arteries. Red arrow indicates Amplatzer vascular plug occluding proximal neck of aneurysm.
