[Usefulness of Doppler color echocardiography in the treatment of femoral pseudoaneurysms].
Four patients with a femoral pseudoaneurysm formation after a therapeutic cardiac catheterization are presented. The diagnosis was made by color-Doppler-ultrasound after clinical suspicion. The repair of this complication was performed using color flow ultrasound-guided compression of the pseudoaneurysm neck.
