With a reported incidence of 0.048%, radial artery pseudoaneurysm (PA) is a rare but serious complication of arterial cannulation. We report a case of PA developing after a single puncture of the right radial artery for arterial blood-gas analysis diagnosed by Doppler ultrasound in young male patient. The development of PA after puncture of radial artery for continuous blood pressure monitoring and serial blood-gas analysis has been reported in the past; however, to the best of our knowledge, there is only one case report of development of PA after a single arterial puncture for blood-gas analysis is reported in the past.
桡动脉假性动脉瘤(PA)的报道发病率为0.048%,是一种罕见但严重的动脉插管并发症。我们报告一例年轻男性患者在单次穿刺右桡动脉进行动脉血气分析后发生PA的病例,通过多普勒超声诊断。过去曾有关于在穿刺桡动脉进行连续血压监测和系列血气分析后发生PA的报道;然而,据我们所知,过去仅有一例关于单次动脉穿刺进行血气分析后发生PA的病例报告。
