SMA angiography at emergency transarterial embolization (a) (b) SMA angiogram showing a rupture of the AIPDA (white arrow) and early visualization of the portal vein (black arrowheads). The PIPDA (white arrows) was suspected to be involved in the haemorrhage. c Digital angiogram, obtained after coil embolization of the proximal AIPDA (white arrow), showing continued extravasation (red circle) from the AIPDA. d AIPDA angiogram after 50% NBCA lipiodol injection to the AIPDA, showing the disappearance of extravasation, with maintained normal blood flow in the branch of the SMA near the AIPDA. ※ AIPDA: anterior inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery ※ PIPDA: posterior inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery. ※ NBCA: n-butyl-2 cyanoacrylate. ※ SMA: superior mesenteric artery
