Conclusion
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided coil and glue treatment is a safe and effective method for treating gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysms.
Supporting Evidence
- The initial treatment with transcatheter arterial embolization failed due to the variant course of the artery.
- Follow-up imaging showed that the blood flow had disappeared after the endoscopic treatment.
Takeaway
Doctors used a special camera to inject glue and coils into a blood vessel problem in a man's stomach, and it worked well to fix it.
Methodology
The treatment involved using an endoscopic ultrasound to guide the injection of coils and glue into the pseudoaneurysm.
Participant Demographics
A 58-year-old man with a gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm.
