{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>This manuscript underscores the critical significance of prompt diagnosis and intervention in cases of post-traumatic gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysms. Such occurrences, particularly in the paediatric population, are rare but potentially life-threatening complications following abdominal trauma, necessitating heightened clinical awareness. Despite their rarity, the devastating consequences of delayed recognition and management emphasize the necessity for advanced imaging modalities and individualized treatment strategies.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A 17-year-old male presented with severe epigastric pain following a football fall. Despite initial stability, persistent symptoms prompted further investigation. Conventional screening methods proved inconclusive, leading to a contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan that revealed a jejunal branch of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) pseudoaneurysm. The subsequent fluoroscopy-guided angiography and successful embolization using glue exemplify the importance of timely intervention in such cases.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>This case highlights the importance of early recognition and appropriate intervention in post-traumatic jejunal branch of SMA pseudoaneurysms. The successful outcome achieved through endovascular embolization underscores the necessity for vigilant monitoring and tailored management strategies in similar clinical scenarios.
