RESUMEN
Lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMSs) have been widely used for drainage of peripancreatic collections. A 71-year-old woman with a history of necrotizing pancreatitis who underwent LAMS placement 3 months ago for symptomatic pancreatic fluid collection presented with hematochezia and hemodynamic instability. Computed tomographic angiography of the abdomen showed concerns for stent erosion into the splenic artery. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a large pulsating nonbleeding vessel within the LAMS. She underwent a mesenteric angiogram, which showed splenic artery pseudoaneurysm, and coil embolization was performed. Gastrointestinal bleeding secondary to pseudoaneurysm should be considered in patients with recent LAMS placement who present with signs of gastrointestinal bleeding.
