Overview
Considering frequencies of the heart cathetrization procedures, including treatment of pseudoaneurysms of the femoral artery using percutaneous thrombotization, a possibility of peripheral arterial emobolization should be considered. The authors describe management of the relatively rare complication in the treatment of postcathetrization pseudoaneurysms. According to the case review, clearing the obliterating arterial embolus of the tissue glue is technically feasible even more than 24 hours folowing the embolization.
Key words:
pseudoaneurysm — percutaneous thrombotization – embolectomy
