RIGHT FEMORAL ARTERY ITRAGENIC PSEUDOANEURYSM SURGICAL EXCISION

Dr Suraj Wasudeo Nagre, Dr Manisha Suraj Nagre

Abstract

Like other invasive procedures, percutaneous coronary interventions are associated with complications. Most common access site for these procedures
is common femoral artery. Complications such as groin and retroperitoneal hematoma can be encountered as well as pseudoaneurysms, arteriovenous fistulas, acute arterial occlusion, and infection. When infected pseudoaneurysm occurs, surgical treatment can be extremely difficult.
We present a case of the patient in whom pseudoaneurysm of right common femoral artery developed after percutaneous coronary intervention and was successfully treated by surgical excision and direct closure of opening in femoral artery.

Keywords

Pseudoaneurysm, Percutaneous coronary intervention, Femoral artery, Pulsatile mass.
