Abstract
Pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta is a rare but life-threatening complication in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.1 Surgical repair of pseudoaneurysms remains the standard treatment. Nevertheless, for patients with extensive aneurysms, urgent indication or renal failure, surgical therapy comes with a high perioperative morbidity and mortality.2 Interventional occlusion of the aneurysmal sac may represent an alternative therapy for inoperable patients.
