Recognition of supraduodenal artery from hepatic artery is essential to avoid untoward complications at HAIC: two cases

Description 

Supraduodenal artery (SDA) supplies the proximal duodenum, which originates most commonly from gastroduodenal artery (GDA), followed by common and proper hepatic artery.1 2 Origination from left hepatic artery (LHA) is relatively rare and only few articles have addressed this anatomic variation.3 Recognition of such an aberrant artery and proper coiling before liver-directed therapy are essential to prevent non-target organ injury. Herein, we report two rare cases of SDA that originated from the LHA.

Case 1

A 56-year-old man had a massive type hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in right hepatic lobe with right portal vein tumour thrombosis (figure 1). He had one episode of massive upper gastrointestinal bleeding at 2nd hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) and panendoscope revealed haemorrhagic duodenitis with duodenal bulb ulcer. In our hospital, a SDA that originated from the LHA was found at angiography, which was successfully embolised with a minicoil (
