Sonographically guided thrombin injection for the treatment of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm. Indian Heart Journal. 2003 Jul-Aug; 55(4): 365-7http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/553626 references.The formation of pseudoaneurysm in the femoral artery after cardiac catheterization is a well-recognized complication occurring in 1%-4% of cases. It is traditionally managed surgically and has a high morbidity. Prolonged ultrasound-guided compression of the neck of the pseudoaneurysm, and ultrasound-guided injection of thrombin into the aneurysm are newer modalities of treatment especially for small aneurysms. We describe the case of a giant pseudoaneurysm of the right femoral artery, post-arteriography, which was successfully managed with ultrasonographically guided percutaneous thrombin injection.engAgedAneurysm, False --drug therapyFemoral Artery --ultrasonographyHeart Catheterization --adverse effectsHemostatics --administration & dosageHumansInjections, Intra-ArterialMaleThrombin --administration & dosageSonographically guided thrombin injection for the treatment of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm.Case Reports
