Hepatic artery pseudo-aneurysm rupturing into hepato-gastric fistula, a rare cause of massive upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage: Case report

Hepatic artery pseudo-aneurysm and hepato-fastric fistula are extremely rare clinical entities, which can be caused as complications of amoebic liver abscess. Herein, we report a 45- year old man, who presented with history of hematemesis since last 1 day, melena since last 3 days and fever since la...
