“…Kang et al 5 reported that pseudoaneurysms with large necks have a higher recurrence rate following thrombin injection. Pothier et al 6 described the use of balloon occlusion of the aneurysm neck to achieve complete thrombosis of the sac with thrombin. In our case thrombin injection probably failed due to the wide aneurysm neck.…”

Pseudoaneurysms of the inferior gluteal artery are rare. We describe a case of an inferior gluteal pseudoaneurysm that presented as a painful mass in the buttock. A percutaneous thrombin injection under ultrasound guidance failed to occlude the sac, probably due to the wide neck of the aneurysm. Subsequently, transluminal coil embolization by ultrasound-guided direct puncture of the inferior gluteal artery achieved complete thrombosis of the sac. Ultrasound-guided coil embolization is recommended in the treatment of peripheral aneurysms where catheter placement using conventional interventional procedures is difficult.
