Background: Coronary artery pseudoaneurysm (PSA) is a rare occurrence linked to percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs), infection, or chest trauma, lacking established management guidelines due to its low incidence.
Case Summary: A 78-year-old male with a medical history of triple vessel disease, post coronary artery bypass grafting, heart failure, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, presented with intractable left-sided chest pain following a mechanical fall. The initial workup was positive for mildly elevated high-sensitivity troponin and brain natriuretic peptide raising suspicion for a pulmonary embolism; but chest computed tomography angiography revealed an enlarging pericardial haematoma.

We present a case of a 26-year-old male with a delayed presentation of a traumatic LV pseudoaneurysm, 2 years post-blunt chest trauma.

Introduction And Significance: The diagnostics and treatment management in conditions of massive sanitary losses with the use of staged treatment have their own specifics and require a multidisciplinary approach with the involvement of a wide range of specialists and the use of modern technologies. The number of sources covering the ultrasound diagnostics and clinical course of hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm as a complication of gunshot wounds is quite limited in world literature.
Case Presentation: We present the experience of the observation and management of the right hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm in case of the blast injury of liver in two patients: the example of successful resolution with spontaneous occlusion and the example with the occurrence of internal bleeding as a result of pseudoaneurysm rupture.
