Pseudoaneurysms of the superficial temporal artery are mostly traumatic in origin. Here, a case of a superficial temporal artery aneurysm that emerged following a recraniotomy is presented. A 59-year-old woman was admitted with subarachnoid hemorrhage. She underwent a pterional craniotomy and clipping of a saccular aneurysm of middle cerebral artery bifurcation. A control digital subtraction an...

Objectives: Splenic artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare but potentially fatal condition. Early diagnosis and intervention are the key steps in management of this We have reviewed our institution’s 4-year data regarding presentation

Objective: Pseudoaneurysm of the arterial anastomosis is an uncommon complication following renal transplantation. Material and method: A month after a cadaveric kidney transplant, a 44-yearold man had increased serum creatinine; routine Doppler ultrasound and computed tomography scans showed a pseudoaneurysm of the external iliac artery at the anastomosis to the recipient renal artery and thro...

An 82 years old man developed a left ventricular pseudoaneurysm after acute myocardial infarction when he was 72 years old. Coronary angiography showed left main and triple-vessel coronary artery disease. On left ventriculography, a tubular-like pseudoaneurysm was demonstrated that originated from the basal inferoposterior wall of the left ventricle. He underwent coronary artery bypass surgery ...

dle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a safe procedure, although major complications do rarely occur. Pseudoaneurysm rupture is an emergency that can cause life-threatening hemorrhage. An exceedingly rare case of ruptured pseudoaneurysm of the splenic artery following EUS-FNA is described. A 62-year-old man was referred for investigation of a pancreatic tumor. On abdominal computed tomography (CT), a low...

Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) and pancreatic fistula are main and serious complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy. Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage is considered life-threatening for its high rate of mortality. Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage is defined as early, occurring within 24 h after surgery, and late. The authors present a case of late PPH which developed in the third week foll...

Materials and methods Female, 76 y.o., with coronary desease, had undergone coronarography at another hospital. She came to our attention a month later, for suspected deep venous thrombosis of the right leg; we performed an Eco-colorDoppler on her, that showed a pseudoaneurysm of the common femoral artery, sized 4,5 mm x 3,4 mm (see Figure 1). The pseudoaneurysm was treated with ultrasound-guid...

We report a case of a radial artery pseudoaneurysm complicating a single arterial puncture for blood-gas analysis that was treated with excision of pseudoaneurysm and suture of the defect of wall of radial artery. The puncture for continuous blood pressure monitoring and serial blood gas analysis have been reported in critically ill patients, but, to the best of our knowledge, there are no case...
