“…The most common etiological factor for the development of PAs is trauma (blunt, penetrating, or iatrogenic) [ 1 - 8 , 12 - 20 ]. Differential diagnoses can include lipomas, fibromas, inclusion cysts, sarcomas, and abscess formation due to the retention of foreign bodies, especially after a previous trauma [ 4 , 5 ].…”

“…Other imaging modalities contributing to the diagnosis include computed tomography angiography, magnetic resonance angiography, and digital subtraction angiography. These imaging modalities can help to determine the anatomy of the PA, the presence of collaterals, the feasibility of performing endovascular therapy, and in cases where medical history is vague or inconclusive [ 3 , 5 , 10 , 14 , 16 ]. In our patient, the distinctive reported recent trauma and adequate vessel mapping on duplex ultrasound were considered sufficient for surgical decision-making.…”

“…The treatment of small and uncomplicated false aneurysms could be conservative only by applying compressive bandages [ 7 ]. Traditionally, the treatment of choice is excision and ligation [ 4 , 2 , 6 , 11 ] or excision and arterial revascularization by primary repair [ 1 , 6 , 8 , 12 , 16 , 17 ], or vein graft interposition [ 18 ]. Our study is the first case report of a traumatic PA of the palmar arch managed with the interposition of an autologous vein graft in the literature.…”

Although rare, pseudoaneurysms (PAs) of the palmar arch are mostly considered benign. However, they can cause severe complications if left untreated or misdiagnosed. There are a few data on traumatic PAs of the palmar arch, particularly those most commonly caused by penetrating hand injuries. However, PAs caused by blunt trauma are more insidious in onset, presenting as a painful pulsatile mass in the palmar area of the hand, and require prompt diagnosis and management to avoid catastrophic sequelae. Our case is the first study to describe a patient with traumatic PA of the palmar arch caused by blunt trauma that was treated with surgical reconstruction and venous bypass interposition.

“…Just as in PSAs in other parts of the body, the T1 and T2 imaging features will vary depending on the amount of internal flow or thrombus. The internal signal characteristic on T2‐weighted imaging can be hyperintense, hypointense, or isointense . These imaging features are highlighted in Figures and .…”

Pseudoaneurysm (PSA) formation is a potential complication of breast biopsies. Ultrasound is the most common imaging modality used for evaluation and treatment of a PSA. Color Doppler images show a cystic structure with swirling flow inside in a "to-and-fro" pattern. Treatment options for PSA include observation, ultrasound-guided focused compression, thrombin injection, open surgical repair, and percutaneous embolization. The risks and benefits of these treatment options will be discussed in the following cases.

Aneurysmal disease can occur in any vessel in the body and occur most commonly the aorta, cerebral and popliteal arteries; however, aneurysms of the digital artery remain a rare presentation. They form an important differential diagnosis in any patient presenting with a mass in the hand. This report presents the case of a 64-year-old man with a true aneurysm of the common palmar digital artery who underwent successful repair, following excision and end to end anastomosis. Only 21 cases of true digital artery aneurysm have been reported; we review the literature pertaining to the diagnosis and management of digital artery aneurysms since they were first described by Baruch et al in 1977.
