Imaging‐guided Core Needle Biopsy (CNB) is a procedure for tissue sampling in case of suspicious findings, such as breast masses and abnormal lymph nodes. It provides definitive diagnosis with a high accuracy rate and generally with no significant complications. To our knowledge, this is the first case report to document a pseudoaneurysm of the axilla after CNB. An illustrative case and a diagnostic and therapeutic literature review are presented.
