RESUMEN
Since a few years, vascular surgeons are becoming interested in laparoscopic vascular techniques. After initial experience with the hand-assisted laparoscopic technique, we now adopt the totally laparoscopic approach for aortoiliac surgery. Our first case with this second technique is presented.

Following the unsuccessful puncture of the right subclavian vein during central catheterism, a 80-year-old women developed a pseudoaneurysm on the external face of the brachiocephalic artery. Her symptomatology and haemodynamic status having remained steady, the patient was closely observed. The pseudoaneurysm itself thrombosed spontaneously and the foreseen endovascular procedure doesn't have been achieved. A review of the literature has been done concerning the venous catheterism complications and the pseudoaneurysm treatment.
