Pseudoaneurysm Infection Ballooning Out of Control Following Sequential Cardiac Catheterizations: A Case Report

A femoral artery pseudoaneurysm (PSA) is a potential complication of vascular access procedures, such as cardiac catheterizations, that can have serious consequences if left untreated. Although the incidence of PSA formation has decreased due to the advent of improved surgical techniques, this case...

description A femoral artery pseudoaneurysm (PSA) is a potential complication of vascular access procedures, such as cardiac catheterizations, that can have serious consequences if left untreated. Although the incidence of PSA formation has decreased due to the advent of improved surgical techniques, this case demonstrates that such complications should be considered in a clinical setting. This report presents a case of right femoral PSA, pacemaker infection, and high-grade methicillin-resistant (MRSA) bacteremia status post multiple cardiac catheterizations. Treatment included open repair of his femoral artery PSA, antibiotics tailored to culture sensitivities, and pacemaker removal. The potential complications, diagnosis, management, and alternative treatment options for PSAs are discussed in order to encourage clinical awareness of a rare complication.
