Özet
Aortic pseudoaneurysm is a rare, life-threatening complication that can occur after cardiac surgery, trauma, or infections. Surgical repair of aortic pseudoaneurysm is the conventional treatment, but it is associated with very high morbidity and mortality especially in early post-operative period. However, very limited reports of successful transcatheter repair of aortic pseudoaneurysm related to surgery appear in the literature. Herein, a case of a 9-year-old female who developed a pseudoaneurysm, after aortic reconstruction, that was successfully treated percutaneously using atrial septal occluder is presented.
