  		Fig. 1B —Patient 1, 53-year-old man with ischemic heart disease. P = pseudoaneurysm, A = common femoral artery. Transverse color Doppler image after injection of 200 units of thrombin shows no residual flow in lumen of pseudoaneurysm.

  		Fig. 1C —Patient 1, 53-year-old man with ischemic heart disease. P = pseudoaneurysm, A = common femoral artery. Longitudinal gray-scale image obtained immediately after injection of thrombin shows nonocclusive thrombus (arrow) in common femoral artery.

  		Fig. 2A —Patient 3, 72-year-old woman, with spindle cell neoplasm of sacrum. P = pseudoaneurysm, A = common femoral artery. Color Doppler image and pulsed Doppler waveform 1 day after tumor embolization shows small pseudoaneurysm arising from common femoral artery. Typical to-and-fro waveform is documented in pseudoaneurysm neck.

  		Fig. 2C —Patient 3, 72-year-old woman, with spindle cell neoplasm of sacrum. P = pseudoaneurysm, A = common femoral artery. Longitudinal gray-scale image taken 1 day after injection of thrombin shows residual thrombus (arrow) that has decreased slightly in size.
