Artery Pseudoaneurysm

Radial artery pseudoaneurysm (RAP) after cardiac catheterization in elderly patients is a rare complication. Clinical manifestations are pain, swelling and haematoma of the harm. The diagnosis is made through doppler ultrasonography, but the best therapeutical option is still matter of debate. Traditionally, surgical treatment has been considered the gold standard but new and less invasive strategies have been recently proposed: ultrasound-guided compression and local injection of thrombin. In this report we describe the unique case of an 84-year-old female patient who developed radial artery pseudoaneurysm after a failed radial artery access for cardiac catheterization. Finally, the pseudoaneurysm was successfully treated by surgical approach as several attempts of local compression failed. We aimed also at reviewing the treatment options of RAP in elderly patients (>75 years old) and the safety/effectiveness reported in literature.

The radial artery access has gained popularity as a method of diagnostic coronary catheterization compared to femoral artery puncture in terms of vascular complications and early ambulation. However, very rare complication like radial artery pseudoaneurysm may occur following cardiac catheterization which may give rise to serious consequences. Here, we report a patient with radial pseudoaneurysm following diagnostic coronary angiography. Adequate and correct methodology of compression of radial artery following puncture for maintaining hemostasis is the key to prevention.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jcmsn.v10i3.12776 Journal of College of Medical Sciences-Nepal, 2014, Vol-10, No-3, 48-50

Introduction. Several arteries can be used as the approach for coronarography or primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). In patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), when performing pPCI according to the current recommendations, approach artery should be the radial artery. Complications of the transradial approach, such as spasm, asymptomatic occlusion, perforation, nerve damage, arteriovenous fistula, compartment syndrome, and radial artery pseudoaneurysm are described. However, only a few cases describe rare complications of transradial approach such as the perforation of the axillary artery. Case outline. The patient was admitted due to the STEMI. Urgent coronarography found 90% stenosis of the proximal segment of the left anterior descendent branch of the left coronary artery (LAD). During the pPCI, a metal stent was implanted in the proximal segment of the LAD. One hour after the intervention, a hematoma in the right arm was registered with the hemodynamic collapse. Angiography of the left axillary artery showed an extravasation of the contrast. A graft stent was implanted in the area of extravasation. After the intervention, regression of the hematoma was registered. Ten years after the primary intervention, CT coronarography and angiography were performed. The stent in the LAD, as well as in the axillary artery, was without any stenosis. Conclusion. Advanced life expectancy, hypertension, atherosclerosis, anatomical variations, and blood vessel tortuosity contribute to the perforation of the axillary artery, a very rare complication of the radial approach. It is usually treated conservatively. In the case of hemodynamic instability, a stent implantation can be considered, as it was in our case.
