Abstract
The occurrence of a radial artery pseudoaneurysm following puncture of the vascular access site is an unusual iatrogenic condition. We report here the case of a 29-year-old patient, chronic hemodialysis, on a left radio-radial arterio-venous fistula, admitted for the management of a pseudoaneurysm of the radial artery, The clinical diagnosis was evoked in front of a painful beating and pulsatile mass confirmed by echodoppler, the treatment was surgical with flattening of the false aneurysm and closing of the orifice of the supply. Hence the importance of preventing false aneurysms by regular clinico-radiological monitoring of the arteriovenous fistula.
