Endovascular management of post-traumatic innominate artery transection with pseudo-aneurysm formation

Abstract

Although catheter-based endovascular techniques have been used with increasing frequency for the management of vascular trauma, reports about innominate artery repair were limited. Here we describe a case of blunt traumatic injury with innominate artery transection. Endovascular stent-graft deployment through femoral artery was performed successfully without any neurologic deficit.
