Ultrasound-guided thrombin injection combined with micro-coils embolization for treatment of thoracoacromial artery pseudoaneurysm

Initially, we attempted ultrasound-guided thrombin injection (UTGI), administering 0.5 ml of thrombin into the lesion, followed by confirmation of complete thrombus formation using color Doppler ultraReceived 05.02.2024 Accepted 12.02.2024 Med Ultrason 2024, Vol. 26, No 2, 212-213, DOI: 10.11152/mu-4397, Corresponding author: After a month of recovery, the cavity itself contracted significantly, the distal artery was free of obstruction (fig 1). [...]recanalization relies on the location of arteries, that is the presence of the clavicle near the PSA cavity made thrombus difficult to harden through external compression, even after thrombin was injected.
