Gastroepiploic aneurysms are rare. We report the case of a 74-year-old man who presented with temporary loss of consciousness and abdominal pain. Computed tomography revealed a ruptured right gastroepiploic artery aneurysm. His vital signs improved after extracellular fluid infusion; hence, we performed transcatheter arterial embolization. There were no postoperative complications, and the patient was discharged on the 15th day of hospitalization. Ruptured abdominal aneurysms are often fatal and should be considered in patients with symptoms of anemia and abdominal pain. Currently, minimally invasive transcatheter arterial embolization had been designated as the preferred treatment option because of effectiveness in both diagnosis and treatment. Thus, we report a case of ruptured right gastroepiploic artery aneurysm treated by transcatheter arterial embolization, thereby preventing an emergency surgery.
