title: [Pseudoaneuryma after transradial puncture in systemic lysis of basilar artery thrombosis].
abstract: METHODS
  Because of neurological symptoms as a result of thrombotic occlusion of the basilar artery, a successful revascularization after systemic Actilyse application was performed in a 78 year old patient. Later, it came to the formation of a pseudoaneurysm at the radial artery, punctured for invasive blood pressure measurement.
  
  
  METHODS
  After oscillographic respectively ultrasound detection of a 2 cm wide pseudoaneurysm from the radial artery, the surgical resection of the aneurysm sac was performed. An ultrasound-guided manual compression due to the localization of a thrombus close to the aneurysm neck could not be conducted. The further clinical course was unremarkable.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  With an increasing number of pseudoaneurysms as a complication of transradial puncture occuring more frequently in the context of intensive care supply and rising outpatient cardiac catheterization (coronary angiography and PCI), the knowledge of care options of vascular complications are of particular importance before practical application.
