Pseudoaneurysm of the internal iliac artery is a rare occurrence. Our patient presented with pain over the lower abdomen which also radiated to the back. An Angiogram of the aorta and the iliac arteries showed a pseudoaneurysm of the right internal iliac artery which measured about 8 x 8 cm with a proximal branch of the internal iliac artery distended. Initial efforts of trying to embolize the pseudoaneurysm revealed that there was a connection between the pseudoaneurysm and the interanal iliac vein where foam was getting dislodged into the venous system. Subsequently, we decided to use a vascular plug which has just been recently being introduced. Post procedure there was no more flow into the right internal iliac artery pseudoaneurysm.
Tuberculous vasculitis is a very rare presentation of tuberculosis. So far this is the second reported case in the literature. The diagnosis of this disorder is based on the clinical presentation as well as blood investigation results. With the ever improvement in modern medicine and improvement in endovascular treatment of such diseases, the morbidity and mortality of these patients have been dramatically reduced with better clinical and survival results. We present a case of endovascular stenting of a stenotic subclavian artery with good results.
