Endovascular exclusion of subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm.
Subclavian artery pseudoaneurysms are typically a rare occurrence commonly caused by iatrogenic injury and trauma. We describe an endovascular approach employing a brachiofemoral through-wire technique for the treatment of a left subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm in the presence of a hostile aortic arch and great vessel anatomy.
