Traumatic pseudoaneurysm of internal mammary artery with fistula of internal mammary vein treated minimally invasive: A case report
Background
Pseudoaneurysms involving the internal mammary artery/internal thoracic artery (IMA/ITA) are rare occurrences, and the presentation and treatment approaches for such cases can be variable. Due to the potentially life-threatening risk of rupture, leading to conditions like haemothorax, it is important to have a comprehensive understanding of safe and effective diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. We present a case of IMA/ITA artery pseudoaneurysm complicated with fistula formation with the vein.
Case presentation
A 36-year-old male presented to the surgical casualty after one week with bleeding from the laceration he had in left chest following a motor vehicle accident. CT angiogram of the chest revealed a pseudoaneurysm formation in the internal mammary artery and a fistula to the internal mammary vein.
Intervention and Outcome
He underwent coil embolization, and subsequent post-procedure angiograms confirmed the effective occlusion of the left IMA/ITA, with no further visualization of the pseudoaneurysm.
Conclusion
Targeted coil embolization is favoured over surgical repair due to its lower complication rates and favourable outcomes.
