Inferior Epigastric Artery Pseudoaneurysm in a Kidney Transplant Recipient

Inferior Epigastric Artery Pseudoaneurysm in a Kidney Transplant Recipient

Pseudoaneurysm of inferior epigastric artery (IEA) is a very rare clinical entity. We reported a case of combined kidney transplant and pseudoaneurysmectomy in a young HBV-HCV-HIV recipient.
