Abstract

A patient with hepatic metastases from a carcinoid tumor was treated by hepatic artery embolization and developed pancreatitis. A subsequent computed tomography scan (CT) demonstrated evidence of pancreatic embolization. The CT findings are reviewed as well as the probable mechanism of the development of pancreatitis.
