Gastroduodenal artery (GDA) aneurysms are particularly rare and only 1.5% of all visceral artery aneurysms in the literature.1 The possible etiologies of GDA aneurysms are vascular abnormality such as fibromuscular dysplasia, systemic lupus erythematosus, polyarteritis nodosa, and predisposing events, which included pancreatitis, abdominal trauma, or major abdominal operation.2 The clinical presentation can vary widely, including asymptomatic anemia, a palpable pulsatile mass, gastric outlet obstruction and fatal gastrointestinal bleeding.3

To conclude, gastroduodenal artery aneurysms are extremely rare, there is only a limited knowledge concerning the clinical presentation and best treatment.
