Endovascular Stent Grafting of a Deep Femoral Artery Pseudoaneurysm

چکیده
INTRODUCTION Pseudoaneurysms (PSAs) are uncommon, but can occur as a complication of orthopedic procedures, usually associated with femur surgery. This report describes successful management of a PSA of the deep femoral artery (DFA) with an endovascular stent graft. REPORT This case reports an injury that presented as a false aneurysm secondary to a fractured neck of femur, which was initially confused with hematoma. Imaging confirmed the diagnosis of PSA, and the decision was taken to implant an endovascular stent graft. DISCUSSION The endovascular stent graft was implanted based on radiological, anatomical, and clinical parameters. This case supports the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of stenting for PSA of the DFA.

Pseudoaneurysms are common vascular abnormalities due to disruption of the vessel wall. Pseudoaneurysm with arteriovenous fistula is a rare presentation. Complications associated with them develop unpredictably and carry a high mortality rate. Traditionally pseudoaneurysms have been treated surgically. However, with the advent of new interventional techniques, management using endovascular appr...

Correspondence To the Editor: We report a strategy for an asymptomatic anastomotic pseudoaneurysm that occurred 30 years after aorta surgery. A 45-year-old male was admitted because the angiograph showed a pseudoaneurysm during an atrial fibrillation radiofrequency procedure. The patient did not have hypertension or chest pain. He had a history of thoracic aorta replacement, which was performed...
متن کاملManagement of Iatrogenic Rupture of Profunda Femoris Artery after Femoral Fracture Fixation with Stent Graft Implantation
Vascular injuries with acute or chronic arterial hemorrhage after femoral shaft fractures are a rare but a life-threatening complication. We observed a case of iatrogenic rupture of the profunda femoris artery after the internal fixation of a femoral shaft fracture. The pseudoaneurysm, presenting with painful expansile swelling and hemodynamic instability, together with the rupture was evident ...
