Abstract
We report a case of an aneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery. An 86-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital for treatment of an aneurysm that was found incidentally by abdominal contrast enhancement computed tomography (CECT). Angiography demonstrated a saccular aneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery that was 28 mm in diameter and stenosis of the superior mesenteric artery. Transcatheter embolization was performed using micro-coil. One month after the embolization, the aneurysm had disappeared on abdominal CECT.
