Complications resulting from brachial and femoral accesses. a Major complications including major bleeding, abscess, pseudo-aneurysm and fistula were statistically significant in the femoral access compared to the brachial access (P = 0.04). d Minor complications including minor bleeding, hematoma and transient neurological deficit were also statistically significant in the femoral access compared to the brachial access (P = 0.05)
