Pseudoaneurysms of the superficial temporal artery are rare. They commonly occur after blunt trauma to the frontotemporal region of the head. There have been less than 400 cases of superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysms reported. We present a case of a patient referred for a pulsatile head mass. Physical examination and color Doppler ultrasound confirmed the diagnosis of a superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm (STA PSA). This was treated with ultrasound-guided thrombin injection with complete resolution. Anatomical distribution, diagnosis, and treatment of STA PSA are discussed.

Purpose To report the use of a balloon catheter to facilitate percutaneous ultrasound-guided thrombin injection of a subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm. Case report A 36-year-old man presented with hoarseness after the insertion of a right temporary internal jugular line. Arteriography showed a short neck right subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm. A 6 mm × 40 mm balloon catheter was positioned across the neck of the pseudoaneurysm to permit percutaneous ultrasound-guided thrombin injection. Immediate post-treatment angiogram demonstrated no filling of the pseudoaneurysm. Seven-month clinical and imaging follow-up confirmed resolution of the pseudoaneurysm and hoarseness. Conclusions This clinical vignette highlights the potential of balloon catheter-assisted percutaneous ultrasound-guided thrombin injection as an alternative to open or endovascular repair of pseudoaneurysms of the subclavian arteries.

Inferior epigastric artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication following abdominal wall procedures near the artery. This is a case of Inferior epigastric artery pseudoaneurysm after therapeutic paracentesis for large volume ascites caused by chronic kidney failure. The patient was operated on, and the artery was ligated.
