Core Tip Chronic pancreatitis complicated with a bleeding pseudoaneurysm is a life-threatening condition. Therapeutic strategies for this rare disease remain controversial. In this review, surgical treatment as a first-line therapy is associated with a high mortality rate in emergency situations. Dynamic abdominal computed tomography and angiography should be performed as the initial management strategy to localize the bleeder, followed by embolization to control the bleeding to achieve early stabilization of the patient’s condition. Surgical intervention should be performed for patients who are unable to undergo or who fail arterial embolization for pseudoaneurysm bleeding, or when endoscopic management of the pseudocyst is unsuccessful.
