Mostly, the rare pseudoaneurysm of the right gastric artery is a complication of a pancreatitis. Clinical findings might be normal, but there is also a hemorrhagic shock in case of rupture. Diagnostic procedures are ultrasound, colour doppler ultrasound, computertomography and angiography for treatment. While endoscopy does not enable a therapeutic approach, interventional radiology with transcatheter embolization is a modality, which can be performed fast, sure and without complications. In case of an intractable acute hemorrhage the embolization is an alternative to surgical emergency.
