An 86-year-old woman presented to hospital with melaena. This was her third presentation with the same symptom. There was no obvious source of bleeding on her oesophagogastroduodenoscopy; however, it did show a previously clipped Dieulafoy lesion. CT angiography showed an aneurysm arising from the hepatic artery. Selective coeliac artery angiogram showed aneurysmal dilatation of the distal part of the coeliac trunk and confirmed the presence of the common hepatic artery aneurysm. The aneurysm was coiled by the interventional radiologist. Final angiogram showed good flow through the hepatic artery with obliteration of the inferior patch. The procedure was uncomplicated and the patient was discharged shortly afterwards.
