title: [Endovascular resolution of iliac artery pseudoaneurysm in a transplanted patient].
abstract: A 58-year-old patient with end-stage idiopatic renal disease underwent kidney transplantation from a cadaveric donor. Approximately one year after the transplant he complained of abdominal pain and presented a pulsating mass in his right pelvic region. Dupplex study and arteriography were performed and showed a large pseudoaneurysm arising from the right common iliac artery. We report the case in which a covered stent placement and an embolization of the right internal iliac artery solved the problem with successful clinical and radiological results.
