Abstract
- Elderly patients with a history of chronic alcoholism presented to our hospital with episodes of melena, abdominal pain, and anemia. During admission, hemorrhagic cystic lesion at the pancreas was observed on abdominal CT. Transcatheter angiography confirmed active bleeding foci and arterial embolization was performed. After the procedure, the bleeding was resolved. The authors report two cases of hemosuccus pancreaticus and pancreaticocolic fistula associated with pancreatitis, a rare cause of gastrointestinal bleeding, treated with vascular intervention.
