title: [Pseudoaneurysm of both superficial femoral arteries complicating coronary angiography: case report].
abstract: A 58 years-old patient with aortic valve disease was admitted to our hospital for coronarography. Coronarography by transfemoral route bilaterally failed and eventually the coronary arteries were visualised by the transaxillary route. After the study bilateral pseudoaneurysms of the superficial femoral arteries were diagnosed clinically and confirmed by color-Doppler and angiographic studies. Surgical therapy was successful. Causes, nature, diagnosis and surgical as well as nonsurgical therapy of the femoral artery pseudoaneurysms complicating percutaneous transfemoral cardiac catheterization are discussed.
