However, the use of radial access in CAG may also cause entry site compli¬cations. Radial pseudoaneurysm after transradial CAG is a rare complication reported in less than 0.1% of the procedures. In this report, we present a 78-year-old patient who was diag¬nosed with right radial artery pseudoaneurysm by Doppler ultrasonography after transradial CAG and treated nonsurgically
