Pseudoaneurysms can be debilitating for patients and occasionally life threatening. Many imaging modalities may be used to assess and define these vascular lesions, and various methods have been employed in their treatment. Our patient suffered trauma to his left shoulder resulting in fracture of his clavicle following an automobile accident and subsequently was found to have a pseudoaneurysm of his left suprascapular artery on imaging. This was treated by transarterial embolization, which resulted in immediate relief of his symptoms. Endoluminal management offers a safe and effective way of treating these lesions.
假性动脉瘤可使患者身体衰弱,偶尔还会危及生命。许多成像方式可用于评估和界定这些血管病变,并且在其治疗中已采用了各种方法。我们的患者在一次汽车事故后左肩受到创伤,导致锁骨骨折,随后影像学检查发现其左肩胛上动脉有假性动脉瘤。通过经动脉栓塞治疗,其症状立即得到缓解。腔内治疗为治疗这些病变提供了一种安全有效的方法。
