“…Endovascular exclusion with covered stents may be an option for treatment of distal subclavian artery pseudoaneurysms if coverage of the vertebral origin can be avoided. Endovascular repair has also been described in the treatment of traumatic vertebral artery pseudoaneurysms with good results (23,24). However, this option was not feasible in our case due to the location of the vertebral and subclavian artery pseudoaneurysms.…”

Central venous lines have become an integral part of patient care, but they are not without complications. Vertebral artery pseudoaneurysm formation is one of the rarer complications of central line placement. Presented is a rare case of two pseudoaneurysms of the vertebral and subclavian artery after an attempted internal jugular vein catheterization. These were successfully treated with open surgical repair and bypass. Open surgical repair remains the gold standard of treatment. Endovascular repair of vertebral artery pseudoaneurysms has been described with promising outcomes, but long-term results are lacking. Ultimately, the best treatment of these iatrogenic injuries should start with prevention. Well-documented techniques to minimize mechanical complications, including inadvertent arterial puncture, should be practiced and taught in training programs to avoid the potentially devastating consequences.

“…Firearm and stab wound injuries, replacement of a central venous catheter into the jugular vein, intravascular radiological interventions for treatment and diagnosis, and spinal surgery constitute the most common traumatic causes of injuries. VA injuries constitute less than 1 % of all the vascular injuries and less than 1-6 % of all the vascular injuries in the cervical region [5,6]. Intact intima media and adventitia layers are present in true aneurysms.…”

“…Hence, in that case, surgical repair of the blood vessel was preferred [11]. However, Khoie et al [12] and Dolati et al [13] reported cases of a traumatic VA pseudoaneurysm treated successfully using an endovascular stent graft to preserve the VA. Dolati et al reported that pseudoaneurysm rupture remains a potential complication in the early post-procedural period [13]; hence, in case there is no massive bleeding and patients are hemodynamically stable, using an endovascular stent graft is a very good choice.…”

Vertebral artery (VA) injuries following trauma to the neck are uncommon. We treated a case of VA injury in an 82-year-old man presented to a hospital with penetrating neck injuries caused by broken glass and underwent surgery for retrieval of the pieces. After the surgery, he complained about hoarseness, computed tomography scan showed glass remnants in his neck, damaging the right VA and forming a pseudoaneurysm. Thereafter, he came to our hospital seeking treatment for the injured VA. Severe bleeding may have occurred during exploration around the pseudoaneurysm; hence, we performed interventional angiography and occluded the right VA, followed by neck surgery. Five days after embolization, we performed the surgery to remove the glasses. There was no bleeding during and after the operation, and the patient was discharged without any complication. In this case report, we discuss the management of VA injury and review the relevant medical literature. ARTICLE HISTORY
