- Description
- The transradial artery approach is the preferred access route for coronary angiography. The risk of major vascular complications is 0.2% and typically involves hematomas arising from the radial, brachial, or subclavian artery, with pseudoaneurysms of the radial artery previously described.1,2. Brachiocephalic pseudoaneurysm is a rare and anatomically challenging clinical entity from a diagnostic and therapeutic perspective.3.To date, brachiocephalic artery pseudoaneurysms with carotid artery involvement as a complication of coronary angiography have been unreported, with a paucity of literature to guide management. In this report, we describe a case of brachiocephalic pseudoaneurysm and associated carotid artery dissection diagnosed 2 weeks following coronary angiography. This required a hybrid exclusion procedure with open surgical bypass of the carotid dissection and retrograde brachiocephalic stenting.
