Abstract
Femoral pseudo aneurysm is the most frequent complication produced by percutaneous femoral procedures. During a 5-year period seven patients underwent seven operative repairs for this complication. All seven patients presented with an expanding swelling in the groin. The average diameter of the aneurysms (at operation) was 5.2 cm. All seven underwent a simple arteriorrhaphy preceded by proximal and distal control. The results using this technique were good in all cases. It is against this background that new surgical and non-surgical techniques will have to be evaluated.
