An elderly patient who presented with an acute lower limb ischaemia was managed by thromboembolectomy: this led to revascularisation of the lower limb but resulted in an iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm of the peroneal artery. Subsequent endovascular treatment was successful, and the patient has made a good recovery.

We report the case of a 3-year-old asymptomatic girl (12 kg, 96 cm) who was diagnosed with a large iatrogenic left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (LVP) on follow-up ultrasound, 14 months after apical muscular ventricular septal defect (VSD) closure with a 10 mm Amplatzer Muscular VSD occluder (Abbott, USA) due to device erosion. The LVP was successfully occluded using detachable Penumbra coils, with complete thrombo-exclusion confirmed at 12-month follow-up.

Background: Iatrogenic cervical artery dissection (CeAD) results from various procedures including interventional angiographic procedures and diagnostic angiography. Iatrogenic CeAD is rare, resulting in limited literature on management and outcomes. This observational cohort study investigates approaches and outcomes of iatrogenic CeAD after endovascular interventions.

Pseudoaneurysms develop as a result of disruption of the arterial wall due to trauma or iatrogenic reasons such as catheterization, and it is important due to the high risk of bleeding and rupture. Until recently, the main treatment of pseudoaneurysms was surgical repair. However, in recent years, minimally invasive methods such as ultrasound-guided compression and percutaneous thrombin injection have been used more frequently.

Introduction And Aims: Arterial pseudoaneurysm is a rare yet potentially life-threatening complication that can arise as a late sequelae of penetrating injuries or orthopaedic procedures. We aim at sharing our institutional experience of managing 18 cases of lower limb arterial pseudoaneurysms in orthopaedic practice and to provide technical tips for emergency management of severe bleeding. A comprehensive literature review resulting from fractures and orthopaedic surgeries is also presented.
