Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Inflow control of a rapidly expanding or ruptured femoral anastomotic "pseudoaneurysm" can be fraught with hazard. Occlusion of an anastomotic femoral aneurysm with a balloon catheter offers the surgeon a simple method of gaining inflow control prior to surgery. After achieving inflow control with the balloon catheter, the surgeon can incise the anastomotic aneurysm without significant blood loss, control back bleeding with balloon occlusion catheters, and with relative ease and safety repair or replace the anastomotic aneurysm as indicated. An illustrative case is presented.
