ABSTRACT
Open repair of ascending aortic pseudoaneurysms (AAPs) is currently the standard of care, but it is associated with high morbidity and mortality. A single-center retrospective experience of 4 patients after cardiac surgery undergoing 5 percutaneous transthoracic embolization procedures is presented. In 3 of the 4 patients, the primary outcome of complete thrombosis was achieved after the first procedure, with a mean follow-up time of 11.5 months. In all 5 procedures, the patients tolerated the procedure well without associated acute complications. Percutaneous transthoracic embolization of AAPs offers an alternate minimally invasive treatment pathway for prohibitive-risk candidates.
