Pseudoaneurysms of the scalp are rare. Most common etiology is trauma. The patients usually present clinically with persistent painful swelling in the scalp few days after the trauma. The lesion may or may not be pulsatile clinically. Ultrasonography (US) is the best modality to assess these pseudoaneurysms. It not only helps in the diagnosis, but also to trace the offending arterial branch and helps in treatment. We present two cases of post-traumatic scalp pseudoaneurysms which were diagnosed with US and were managed by US-guided thrombin injection. Follow up US showed complete resolution. We highlight the importance of US scan in diagnosis, management, and follow up of scalp pseudoaneurysms.

Bronchial Artery Pseudoaneurysm With Major Hemorrhage After Bronchial Thermoplasty

Bronchial thermoplasty has been found to be a safe and effective therapy for severe asthma. We report the case of a mediastinal hematoma and hemothorax developing in a 66-year-old woman several days after an uneventful bronchial thermoplasty of the right lower lobe. Evaluation revealed a bleeding right bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm. Pseudoaneuryms have been reported in association with other procedures involving the therapeutic application of thermal energy, and a single case of hemoptysis requiring bronchial artery embolization occurred in a clinical trial of bronchial thermoplasty. However, bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm with hemomediastinum and hemothorax has not previously been reported after bronchial thermoplasty.

“…Mycotic profunda femoris artery (PFA) pseudoaneurysms are rare, and the treatment is generally decided on a case-by-case basis. The use of covered stent grafts to successfully exclude non-infected PFA pseudoaneurysms has been reported in the literature with good outcomes 2–6…”

Mycotic pseudoaneurysms develop at sites of intimal disruption where bacterial invasion occurs. The conventional treatment involves arterial ligation, excision and debridement, followed by a bypass procedure at a later point. Recently, covered stent grafts have been used to treat mycotic arterial aneurysms either as temporary or definitive procedures. However, this is associated with a risk of stent graft infection, recurrence and rupture. There is a paucity of long-term results on the durability of such endovascular stent graft procedures in mycotic arterial pseudoaneurysms. We describe a successful endovascular covered stent repair of a mycotic profunda femoris artery pseudoaneurysm and follow-up of this repair at 2 years.
