Iatrogenic femoral complex pseudoaneurysm: A case report

Abstract

An iatrogenic complex femoral pseudoaneurysm, though rare, is associated with much comorbidity. We want to bring up a case of a complex pseudoaneurysm created after a percutaneous angioplasty, which was finally repaired using a surgical technique. The danger of rupture, embolisation, and infection are associated with complex femoral pseudoaneurysms. Though there are various ways of managing such a condition, an ideal approach should be tailored to each patient, considering their comorbidities. Surgical repair is still a practical and successful therapeutic option for these lesions, especially when endovascular or a conservative intervention is not advised or has not worked.
