Scrotal hematoma is a rare complication of bleeding after femoral artery puncture. It often occurs without an associated inguinal hematoma, making it difficult to detect immediately after the procedure. Management of scrotal hematoma is usually conservative; however, surgical intervention or IVR may be necessary in cases of active bleeding.
