dc.abstract.enBackground: Visceral aneurysms are rare findings, most frequently located in a splenic artery. Splenic artery aneurysms are usually asymptomatic and no larger than 3 cm in diameter. Case report: We present a case of a 56-year-old man who was admitted to the emergency department with acute epigastric pain and intestinal bleeding six months after an episode of acute pancreatitis. An emergency triphasic helical CT showed a giant splenic artery aneurysm, up to 9 cm in diameter. Our diagnosis was pseudoaneurysm of a splenic artery which developed as a complication of acute pancreatitis. The described aneurysm had not been visualized in a helical CT examination performed six months earlier. The patient underwent surgery, which confirmed our initial diagnosis. Conclusions: Helical CT is an effective method of estimating visceral aneurysms. This pathology should be taken into account as a late complication of acute pancreatitispl
