Abstract

A 57-year old male patient presented to the outpatient clinic with swelling in his left wrist causing pain and numbness in his fingers. The patient had undergone multiple cardiovascular angiographic interventions in the past. The first diagnosis was thrombosed radial artery pseudoaneurysm. The intraoperative diagnosis was the volar ganglion cyst. In this report, we emphasize the importance of the complications after transradial arterial catheterizations and present our experience.

Key words: Ganglion cyst, pseudoaneurysm, radial artery
