Transarterial Coil Embolization of a Symptomatic Posttraumatic Plantar Pseudoaneurysm
Posttraumatic pseudoaneurysms of the lateral plantar artery are rare. We report the case of a 31-year-old woman with a painful pseudoaneurysm of the lateral plantar artery resulting from a deep plantar cut injury.

| Summary: | Posttraumatic pseudoaneurysms of the lateral plantar artery are rare. We report the case of a
31-year-old woman with a painful pseudoaneurysm of the lateral plantar artery resulting from
a deep plantar cut injury. The pseudoaneurysm was successfully treated by performing a
transarterial “frontdoor-backdoor” coil embolization technique, which is a minimally invasive
alternative to conventional ligature of the artery. |
