ABSTRACT
Pseudoaneurysm is a well-known vascular access complication of angiography and percutaneous intervention. Traditionally, thrombin injection is a well‑accepted technique in treating pseudoaneurysms but possess significant risk of distal lower extremity thrombosis leading to severe consequences. Various case reports reported the novel approach for closing these pseudoaneurysms. We describe a case of successful treatment of pseudoaneurysms by using a stent-graft and Amplatzer vascular plug vascular closure device.
Key words: Pseudoaneurysm; thrombosis; vascular occlusion device
