ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Pseudoaneurysms are a serious complication of neuroendovascular therapy with femoral artery puncture, for which ultrasound-guided compression repair (UGCR) is often the first choice of radical therapy. We sought to retrospectively investigate the factors for failure of UGCR for pseudoaneurysm at the femoral artery puncture site.METHODS:
Among patients undergoing neuroendovascular therapy with femoral artery puncture at our hospital between January 2018 and April 2021, those who received a diagnosis of pseudoaneurysm and underwent UGCR were enrolled. They were classified into two groups according to whether UGCR was successful (UGCR group) or was converted to surgical repair (SR group). Patient and procedural characteristics were compared between the two groups.RESULTS:
During the study period, 577 patients underwent neuroendovascular therapy with femoral artery puncture, 10 of whom (1.7%) received a diagnosis of pseudoaneurysm and underwent UGCR. There were seven patients in the UGCR group and three patients in the SR group. The sheath diameter tended to be larger in the SR group than in the UGCR group (p = 0.16). The modified Rankin scale score when a diagnosis of pseudoaneurysm was made was significantly lower in the SR group than in the UGCR group (1 [0-2] vs. 3 [2-5], p = 0.037).CONCLUSIONS:
Physical activity may be associated with failure of UGCR. In patients with high physical activity, the use of sedatives and analgesics to keep them at rest during puncture site compression after UGCR may lead to successful UGCR.Key words
