Background: Right ventricular pseudoaneurysms are extremely rare and there is no precise recommendation for their management.
Case Summary: We present the case of a successful coil embolization of a right ventricular pseudoaneurysm in a woman with chronic kidney disease due to perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody vasculitis and a history of difficult placement of a hemodialysis catheter.
Discussion: Ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a contained rupture of the ventricular wall that can occur due to several causes.
A 67-year-old man was sent to our center because of progressively worsening chest pain. A giant ruptured thoracic aortic aneurysm was documented. We performed a successfully rescue snorkel technique for thoracic endovascular aortic repair failure because of type IA endoleak after the first endoprosthesis implantation.

Background: Safety and efficacy of a true percutaneous approach in transfemoral-TAVI has not been described in a large prospective cohort.
Methods: Among 264 patients included in our prospective TAVI database (October 2006 to December 2010), transfemoral-TAVI was performed in 170 patients.
Objectives: This study sought to evaluate the incidence, impact, and predictors of vascular complications in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Background: Vascular complications increase morbidity and mortality in transfemoral TAVI; however, there remains a paucity of data describing these serious events.
Methods: We performed a prospective cohort study of 130 consecutive transfemoral TAVI recipients.
