Figure

Fig. 1 Duplex ultrasound image showed 3.2×1.5 cm sized pseudoaneurysm (*) and high velocity flow through a neck (arrow) from femoral artery (FA).
Fig. 2 During thrombin injection, rapidly developed thrombus (*) was identified within aneurysm sac.
Fig. 3 After 2,000 units of thrombin injection, pseudoaneurysm was was filled with thrombus (*) and high velocity flow was nearly completely disappeared.
