Resumo

Experience with four aneurysms of the pancreaticoduodenal artery is reviewed and compared to the reported experience of 19 other cases. In view of the common presentation of such lesions as intra-abdominal hemorrhage preceded by nonspecific abdominal pain and other digestive symptoms, it is suggested that angiography performed preoperatively or intraoperatively allows definitive diagnosis and leads to specific therapy.
