[Peripheral neurologic complications following percutaneous transaxillary aortography].
Today percutaneous transaxillary aortography is indicated cautiously because of severe neurological permanent injury. The nervous lesion is superficially caused by catheter manipulation or postangiographic hematomas resp. an aneurysma spurium. The symptomless time interval of hours or days proves the cause of hematoma. In the early stage an overlay of the damage causes is possible. The sensible and motorial deficit can be decisively influenced by an early exoneration of the neurovascular septum.
