The anatomical position of the inferior epigastric artery (IEA), within the rectus sheath, subjects patients to possible IEA injury during abdominal wall surgical and interventional procedures. Pseudoaneurysm arising from IEA is very uncommon with only 16 cases reported in the literature. We present a case of an IEA false aneurysm resulting from therapeutic paracentesis for ascites in a 71-year-old patient who came to our department for abdominal pain and signs of anemization. To our knowledge, no published reports are currently available describing an IAE pseudoaneurysm successfully diagnosed with contrast-enhanced ultrasound.
腹壁下动脉（IEA）在腹直肌鞘内的解剖位置，使患者在腹壁手术和介入操作过程中可能受到IEA损伤。由IEA引起的假性动脉瘤非常罕见，文献中仅报道了16例。我们报告一例71岁患者，因腹水进行治疗性腹腔穿刺后发生IEA假性动脉瘤，该患者因腹痛和贫血迹象前来我院就诊。据我们所知，目前尚无已发表的报告描述通过超声造影成功诊断IAE假性动脉瘤的情况。
