Abstract
The etiology of hemobilia has mainly iatrogenic (>50%), followed by traumatic causes. Others are biliopathy due to portal high pressure, or neoplastic or infective biliopathy. In the case of non-clear hemobilia, direct-vision-cholangioscopy can change the management in >34% of cases. Our patient had episodes of obstructive hemobilia with secondary cholangitis without objectifying underlying pathology. When she was referred to our center, SpyGlass®-cholangioscopy identified the suspicious lesion compatible with early-stage cholangiocarcinoma despite the diagnostic delay. In conclusion, it is important to keep in mind the neoformative etiology as a potential cause of hemobilia of unclear origin, in which case, cholangioscopy (SpyGlass®) can contribute to the recognition of the signs of malignancy of the lesion and, therefore, to the diagnosis.

Abstract
As a rare complication of liver injury and certain interventions, bile can enter the bloodstream depending on the pressure gradient, resulting in bilhemia. Its micro-rheological and hemodynamic effects are still unclear. We aimed to study these parameters in experimental bilhemia models. Under general anesthesia, via laparotomy, bile was obtained by gallbladder puncture from pigs and by choledochal duct cannulation from rats. In vitro, 1 µL and 5 µL of bile were mixed with 500 µL of anticoagulated autologous blood. The systemic effect was also assessed (i.v. bile, 200 µL/bwkg). Hemodynamic and hematological parameters were monitored, and red blood cell (RBC) deformability and aggregation were determined. RBC deformability significantly decreased with the increasing bile concentration in vitro (1 µL: p = 0.033; 5 µL: p < 0.001) in both species. The RBC aggregation index values were concomitantly worsened (1 µL: p < 0.001; 5 µL: p < 0.001). The mean arterial pressure and heart rate decreased by 15.2 ± 6.9% and 4.6 ± 2.1% in rats (in 10.6 ± 2.6 s) and by 32.1 ± 14% and 25.2 ± 11.63% in pigs (in 48.3 ± 18.9 s). Restoration of the values was observed in 45 ± 9.5 s (rats) and 130 ± 20 s (pigs). Bilhemia directly affected the hemodynamic parameters and caused micro-rheological deterioration. The magnitude and dynamics of the changes were different for the two species.

Abstract
Hemobilia is a rare condition defined as bleeding in the biliary tract. The clinical presentation is variable. The typical manifestation consists of jaundice, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, and right upper quadrant abdominal pain. This set of symptoms is known as "Quincke's triad." It is present in only 22%-35% of cases. Post-traumatic hemobilia is an extraordinarily rare condition occurring in only 6% of the patients with hemobilia. In general, it occurs in less than 0.2% of patients with liver trauma. A delay in the development of bleeding after liver trauma is frequent. Early diagnosis is essential because massive bleeding into the biliary tract is a potentially life-threatening condition. We present a case of a patient with massive hemobilia developed 12 days after blunt abdominal trauma. Computed tomography angiography showed two pseudoaneurysms in hepatic segments V and VIII with contrast medium extravasation. We successfully performed digital subtraction angiography with selective transcatheter arterial embolization of the leaking segment VIII pseudoaneurysm. Embolization of the pseudoaneurysm in segment V was technically impracticable. Our article provides a review of the published literature focussing on the prevalence, diagnostics, and treatment of post-traumatic hemobilia.

Abstract
Non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGIB) is a common gastroenterological emergency associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Gastroenterologists and other involved clinicians are generally assisted by international guidelines in its management. However, NVUGIB due to peptic ulcer disease only is mainly addressed by current guidelines, with upper gastrointestinal endoscopy being recommended as the gold standard modality for both diagnosis and treatment. Conversely, the management of rare and extraordinary rare causes of NVUGIB is not covered by current guidelines. Given they are frequently life-threatening conditions, all the involved clinicians, that is emergency physicians, diagnostic and interventional radiologists, surgeons, in addition obviously to gastroenterologists, should be aware of and familiar with their management. Indeed, they typically require a prompt diagnosis and treatment, engaging a dedicated, patient-tailored, multidisciplinary team approach. The aim of our review was to extensively summarize the current evidence with regard to the management of rare and extraordinary rare causes of NVUGIB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemobilia is a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding that originates from the biliary tract. It is infrequently considered in diagnosis, especially in the absence of abdominal trauma or history of hepatopancreatobiliary procedure, such as cholecystectomy, which can cause arterial pseudoaneurysm. Prompt diagnosis is crucial because its management strategy is distinct from other types of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Here, we present a case of massive hemobilia caused by the rupture of a gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm in a patient with a history of laparoscopic cholecystectomy 3 years prior to presentation. CASE PRESENTATION A 44-year-old Indonesian female presented to the emergency department with complaint of hematemesis and melena accompanied by abdominal pain and icterus. History of an abdominal trauma was denied. However, she reported having undergone a laparoscopic cholecystectomy 3 years prior to presentation. On physical examination, we found anemic conjunctiva and icteric sclera. Nonvariceal bleeding was suspected, but esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a blood clot at the ampulla of Vater. Angiography showed contrast extravasation from a gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm. The patient underwent pseudoaneurysm ligation and excision surgery to stop the bleeding. After surgery, the patient's vital signs were stable, and there was no sign of rebleeding. CONCLUSION Gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The prolonged time interval, as compared with other postcholecystectomy hemobilia cases, resulted in hemobilia not being considered as an etiology of the gastrointestinal bleeding at presentation. Hemobilia should be considered as a possible etiology of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with history of cholecystectomy, regardless of the time interval between the invasive procedure and onset of bleeding.

Abstract
Hemobilia, or hemorrhage within the biliary system, is an uncommon form of upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding that presents unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Most cases are the result of iatrogenic trauma, although accidental trauma and a variety of inflammatory, infectious, and neoplastic processes have also been implicated. Timely diagnosis can often be difficult, as the classic triad of upper GI hemorrhage, biliary colic, and jaundice is present in a minority of cases, and there may be considerable delay in the onset of bleeding after the initial injury. Therefore, the radiologist must maintain a high index of suspicion for this condition and be attuned to its imaging characteristics across a variety of modalities. CT is the first-line diagnostic modality in evaluation of hemobilia, while catheter angiography and endoscopy play vital and complementary roles in both diagnosis and treatment. The authors review the clinical manifestations and multimodality imaging features of hemobilia, describe the wide variety of underlying causes, and highlight key management considerations.©RSNA, 2021.

Abstract
In addition to acute injury requiring interventional radiologic treatments, patients with traumatic injuries can develop delayed or chronic complications. These injuries can involve nearly all solid organs in the abdomen. Coupled with significant improvements in visualizing these injuries with advanced imaging techniques such as minimally invasive procedures, nonoperative management of both acute traumatic injuries and their longer term sequelae has become the norm. This article reviews frequently seen complications of traumatic injury and their management by interventional radiologists.

Abstract
Acute hemorrhagic cholecystitis is a rare, life-threatening condition that can be further complicated by perforation of the gallbladder. We describe a patient with clinical and radiologic findings of acute cholecystitis with a gallbladder rupture and massive intra-abdominal bleeding. Our patient is a 67-year-old male who presented with an ischemic stroke and was treated with early tissue plasminogen activator. His hospital course was complicated by a fall requiring posterior spinal fusion surgery. He recovered well, but several days later developed subxiphoid and right upper quadrant pain and an episode of hemobilia and melena. A computed tomography scan revealed an inflamed, distended gallbladder with indistinct margins and a large hematoma in the gallbladder fossa extending to the right paracolic gutter. The patient also developed hemodynamic instability concerning for hemorrhagic shock. He underwent an emergent laparoscopic converted to open subtotal fenestrating cholecystectomy with abdominal washout for management of his acute hemorrhagic cholecystitis with massive intra-abdominal hemorrhage. Prompt recognition of this lethal condition in high-risk patients is crucial for optimizing patient care.

Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to develop a predictive risk model for post-ablation hemobilia. Methods: This was a retrospective, multicenter, matched case–control study. The case group comprised patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who developed post-ablation hemobilia (n = 21); the control group (n = 63) comprised patients with hepatocellular carcinoma but no post-ablation hemobilia; for each case, we included three controls matched for age, sex, platelet count, year of ablation therapy, and center. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed to identify the risk factors for hemobilia. A risk score model was developed based on adjusted odds ratios (ORs). Results: The independent risk factors for occurrence of post-ablation hemobilia were maximum tumor diameter >47 mm [OR = 5.983, 95% CI (1.134–31.551)] and minimum distance from the applicator to the portal trunk ≤8 mm [OR = 4.821, 95% CI (1.225–18.975)]. The risk model was developed using the adjusted ORs; thus a score of 6 was assigned to the former and a score of 5 for the latter. The area under the curve of this risk model was 0.76. Significant hemodynamic instability and inaccurate embolization might increase the risk of recurrence of hemobilia. Conclusion: Tumor size >47 mm and distance of the applicator from the portal trunk ≤8 mm are independent risk factors for hemobilia. A predictive risk model for post-ablation hemobilia was developed using these risk factors. Advances in knowledge: This is the first study that developed a risk score model of post-ablation hemobilia. Risk factors of the recurrence of post-ablation hemobilia were also been identified.

Abstract
Cystic artery pseudoaneurysm is an exceedingly rare complication of biliary interventions, such as cholecystectomy, or cholecystitis [1]. Prompt intervention is often required due to their predisposition to bleeding. Ideal diagnosis and treatment would have the patient go directly to Interventional Radiology for angiography and embolization, followed by a short interval cholecystectomy [2, 3]. However, due to their low incidence patients often undergo several less invasive diagnostic tests prior to diagnosis [4]. Here we describe what we believe is the first reported pediatric case of a cystic artery pseudoaneurysm secondary to cholecystitis.

Abstract
Hemobilia, or hemorrhage into the biliary system, is an unusual cause of gastrointestinal bleeding most commonly seen in accidental or iatrogenic trauma. We present the rare case of a 43-year-old gentleman who presents with an intrahepatic pseudoaneurysm caused by cholecystitis. The management of the hemobilia was technically challenging requiring multiple interventional procedures. We review the pathophysiology and treatment strategies for this rare case of gastrointestinal hemorrhage.

Abstract
A 74-year-old man presented to the emergency department with acute abdominal pain in addition to anemia and melena, which were suspected to be due to gastrointestinal bleeding. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a blood-filled duodenum and acute pancreatitis. We prioritized treatments for pancreatitis, as the vital signs were stable, and temporary hemostasis was achieved. Two days later, esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a duodenal ulcer with an exposed vessel, and endoscopic hemostasis was performed. We urge clinicians to consider the possibility of pancreatitis associated with massive bleeding due to a duodenal ulcer.
