  • Title: Posttraumatic pseudoaneurysm in scalp treated by direct puncture embolization using N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate: a case report.
    Author: Yang HJ, Choi YH.
    Journal: Korean J Radiol; 2005; 6(1):37-40. PubMed ID: 15782018.
    Abstract:
    Here, we report a case of scalp pseudoaneurysm which was treated by direct puncture embolization using n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate. The patient had a history of blunt trauma in the previous two months. Ultrasound-guided manual compression was initially attempted, but the results were unsatisfactory. Direct puncture embolization was then performed, and the pseudoaneurysm was completely obliterated. Non-surgical treatment options for pseudoaneurysm are briefly discussed.
