| Popis: | Objectives: To compare the affected patients with the age- and sex-matched patients in the control group. Materials and Methods: All patients who had undergone PCI, left heart catheterization, or coronary angiography between July and November 2022 were prospectively recruited. We included 247 patients in our study who underwent cardiac catheterization via femoral access. Results: The incidence of FAP after a diagnostic catheterization was 5.97% and 8.69% after an interventional procedure. The mean age of the patients with FAP was 54.06 ± 15.04 years and 62.5% patients were females in the affected group. In FAP group, 14 patients (87.5%) had hypertension, 8 patients (50%) had diabetes, and 37.5% were had obesity. The systolic blood pressure was 145.38 ± 29.99 mmHg, while the diastolic blood pressure was 86 ± 14.59 mmHg. Data obtained from computed tomography scanning showed that the arterial wall of the CFA was healthy in 11 patients (68.5%), while diffuse atherosclerosis was detected in 5 (31.5%) patients. In 69% of the patients, FAPs were connected to the CFA and in 31% patients to the superficial femoral artery (SFA). In 38% (6) patients partial thrombosis of the pseudoaneurysm sac observed. Conclusion: FAP is a common vascular complication after a diagnostic procedure or percutaneous cardiac catheterization, and its prevalence is likely to rise. |
