Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Femoral pseudoaneurysm (PSA) is a well-recognized complication following catheter-based diagnostic or interventional procedures. We report a patient who developed a pseudoaneurysm following the insertion of a Steinman pin for a fractured shaft of the right femur following a road traffic accident. The treatment of choice for a femoral pseudoaneurysm is ultrasound-guided compression repair. As this modality of treatment was not applicable to our patient, the pseudoaneurysm was closed by transcutaneous short guidewire embolization technique.
