Iatrogenic femoral false aneurysms are increasing due to complex arterial procedures. Prevention includes careful puncture and compression, while ultrasound and thrombin injection offer effective treatment options.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Interventional Radiology

Context:

  • Rising incidence of iatrogenic femoral false aneurysms, particularly after complex and lengthy arterial procedures.
  • Estimated incidence rates: 0.5% for diagnostic and over 9% for therapeutic arterial punctures.
  • Increased complexity and duration of arterial interventions contribute to higher risks.

Purpose:

  • To review the incidence, prevention, and modern therapeutic approaches for iatrogenic femoral false aneurysms.
  • To highlight the role of atraumatic puncture, compression, and closure devices in prevention.
  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of compression ultrasonography and percutaneous embolization techniques.

Summary:

  • Prevention strategies focus on atraumatic arterial puncture, adequate post-procedure compression, and the use of percutaneous arterial closure devices.

  • Modern therapeutic options include compression ultrasonography (70-100% effective) and percutaneous embolization (thrombin or coils).
  • Thrombin injection is noted for its high effectiveness, painless application, and low complication rate when performed by experienced practitioners.

    • Impact:

    • Informed clinical practice regarding the prevention and management of femoral false aneurysms.
    • Guidance on selecting appropriate therapeutic interventions based on safety and efficacy data.
    • Potential reduction in complication rates associated with arterial access procedures.
