Abstract:
A pseudoaneurysm of the breast after a core needle biopsy is an extremely rare vascular complication. We report one case of a breast pseudoaneurysm that developed after an ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy. The ultrasound appearance, prevention and treatment of a breast pseudoaneurysm are discussed.
