Abstract
Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is a cheap and effective diagnostic procedure that can be applied directly or with imaging guidance. Complications are rare and mostly insignificant. Here, we report a rare but serious complication related to thyroid FNAB: hematoma and a pseudoaneurysm (PSA) that was managed with percutaneous US-guided thrombin injection.
