Abstract
We report on percutaneous obliteration of femoral pseudoaneurysm compl icating percutaneous coronary interventions in 6 patients. Our finding s suggest that permanent or transient direct coil insertion may be an useful alternative in the treatment of pseudoaneurysm hi patients who do not respond to mechanical compression.
