“…It has been described in isolated case reports of a possible link between anticoagulation and the formation of spontaneous pseudoaneurysms [6][7][8]. It is postulated that individuals develop extravascular hematomas and recanalization of the hematoma, leading to formation of the pseudoaneurysm.…”

“…It is postulated that individuals develop extravascular hematomas and recanalization of the hematoma, leading to formation of the pseudoaneurysm. 7 Common presenting complaints for patients with pseudoaneurysms of nearby lumbosacral vessels are usually back or flank pain. However, rupture of these pseudoaneurysms can occur, and patients may present in hemorrhagic shock requiring resuscitation and early operative management.…”

We report the case of an 81-year-old man who presented with severe right hip pain and reduced physical function secondary to a large spontaneous median sacral artery pseudoaneurysm measuring 83.5 Â 55.4 mm. The patient had no history of recent trauma, infective or inflammatory disease, or any recent procedures. The patient was taking apixaban for atrial fibrillation. Percutaneous coil embolization was used to occlude the pseudoaneurysm. This case describes a novel disease, spontaneous median sacral artery pseudoaneurysm, presenting with hip pain.

“…Clinically, localized tenderness, neurological symptoms owing to neural compression, arterial insufficiency, and ischemia findings owing to arterial thrombosis or aneurysmal dilatation are present. Early treatment is recommended to prevent possible embolization, rupture, or loss of function (4) . Superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm was first described by Bartholin in 1740.…”

Peripheral pseudoaneurysms mostly occur owing to diagnostic catheterization but rarely owing to blunt or penetrating trauma, infection, or recurrent microtrauma. They appear as a soft pulsatile mass. Complications may occur owing to rupture or distal embolization. Doppler ultrasound and computed tomography are the imaging techniques used in diagnosis. Endovascular interventions and surgery are among the treatment options. In this report, we present two unusually located pseudoaneurysms, one in the superficial palmar arch following penetrating trauma and another in the superficial temporal artery following blunt trauma.

“…3 Likewise, elderly patients who use walking canes can also present with bilateral hammer hand syndrome, 3 and patients who need crutches for a prolonged period of time may also develop axillary artery aneurysms. 1,2 Although rare, there have also been cas-es of spontaneous hand pseudoaneurysms in patients on anticoagulation therapy; 4,5 however, pseudoaneurysms are not an absolute contraindication to initiating or continuing use of anticoagulants.…”
