“…In the medical Literature, there have been fewer than ten reported 10-14 cases of using percutaneous thrombin injection to treat pseudoaneurysms of the common carotid artery. Some of these techniques, such as the 1 described by Holder et al, 10 involve using a balloon positioned proximally or distally to the aneurysm as a protective device to manage potential thrombin leaks.…”

This report demonstrates the successful treatment of a carotid artery pseudoaneurysm using percutaneous thrombin injection. The patient, a 62-year-old woman with multiple comorbidities, experienced a pseudoaneurysm following an unintentional carotid artery puncture during a failed attempt to place a triple lumen catheter in the right jugular vein. Percutaneous thrombin injection was chosen as the treatment method, with Doppler ultrasound monitoring. Follow-up examinations showed no signs of recurrence, and the patient was discharged after nine days without complications.

“…This iatrogenic pathology has a low incidence rate but when it occurs it should be treated as soon as possible. 1 The treatment alternatives are generally surgical (open surgery) 2,3 or endovascular. 4,5 The injection of fibrin adhesive in arterial accesses has proven to be effective and safe.…”

Carotid pseudoaneurysm is a statistically low probability pathology, but when it occurs it can even cause the patient's death, especially due to its complications (rupture, thrombosis and/or embolization). The main cause is iatrogenic, due to percutaneous catheterization for placement of a central line in the neck vessels. We present through a clinical case the importance of percutaneous treatment guided by echo-Doppler.
