Abstract:
Background: Bronchobiliary fistula and hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm are rare complications of hepatic
trauma. There are isolated case reports for both pseudoaneurysm and bronchobiliary fistula following hepatic
trauma but there aren’t reports of both conditions developing in a single patient.
Case presentation: This case describes an 18 year old Hindu male who developed right hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm
and bronchobiliary fistula following blunt abdominal trauma. Patient was managed with exploratory
laparotomy followed by coil embolization and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography stenting
respectively.
Conclusion: Rare complications of liver trauma include pseudoaneurysm and bronchobiliary fistula. These
complications can rarely co-exist in a single patient.
