Abstract
Pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of cardiothoracic surgery. Re-operation is associated with a high mortality risk; therefore, percutaneous endovascular closure techniques with different closure devices have been repeatedly reported over the last 15 years. Previous endovascular procedures were performed using a transfemoral or transbrachial approach. We report a case of transradial ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm closure in a patient deemed unsuitable for surgery.
