A patient with multiple episodes of gastrointestinal bleeding underwent Tc-labeled red blood cell scintigraphy to detect the source of bleeding, which showed a focally increased activity in the upper midabdomen. SPECT/CT demonstrated that the activity was located in the pancreatic head. Angiography confirmed the diagnosis of pancreatic arteriovenous malformation. After transarterial embolization therapy, the patient no longer had bleeding episode. Based on the present case, pancreatic arteriovenous malformation should be included as differential diagnosis during Tc-red blood cell scintigraphy.
