Abstract

Iatrogenic femoral artery pseudoaneurysm at the level of the hip joint in a 52-year-old patient was treated by ultrasound-guided percutaneous thrombin injection, while a balloon was inflated at the neck of the pseudoaneurysm under fluoroscopy, to prevent thrombin leakage to the arterial system.
