Abstract Complications following venous punctures are unusual. We describe a case of a false common femoral vein aneurysm following right heart catheterization in a patient with systemic venous hypertension due to tricuspid regurgitation. The initial interpretation of the Doppler ultrasound study lead to a digital subtraction femoral arteriogram which was normal. Magnetic resonance venography demonstrated a femoral venous pseudoaneurysm.
