چکیده

Results Color Doppler ultrasound revealed bilateral popliteal arterial aneurysm of 2-2.5 cm. Computed tomographic angiography showed a fusiform aneurysmal dilation of the abdominal aorta with a largest diameter of 38 mm. Left superficial femoral artery was totally occluded and the graft was patent. There was a high-grade stenosis at the site of proximal anastomosis. Both popliteal arteries showed aneurysmal dilation of 35 and 25 mm, right and left sides, respectively. Right peroneal artery was patent but the remaining two branches were perfused via collaterals. All of the 3 infragenual branches were patent on left with occlusion of the anterior tibial artery distally. Pedal arteries were patent. Coronary angiogram discovered some non-significant stenotic lesions at left anterior descending and right coronary arteries. With these findings, we planned percutaneous balloon dilation or, if necessary, stenting of the proximal anastomosis site and endovascular stent grafting of both popliteal arteries. He preferred to remain in outpatient follow-up.

Lower extremity compartment syndrome after elective percutaneous fenestrated endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm

Ischemic complications after fenestrated endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (FEVAR) can result in significant morbidity and mortality. We present a case of a 65-year-old man who underwent a FEVAR complicated by bilateral lower extremity compartment syndrome requiring four-compartment fasciotomies. This ischemic complication was likely caused by sheath occlusion because the patient had no evide...

An Aortoenteric Fistula Arising after Endovascular Management of a Mycotic Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Complicated with a Psoas Abscess

Mycotic aortic aneurysms account for 1–3% of all aortic aneurysms. The management of this disease is controversial. Since open surgical repair is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, endovascular aneurysm repair is an alternative treatment method with promising early and midterm outcomes, although its long-term durability is unknown.Secondary aortoenteric fistulas may occur iatro...

Drug Therapy for Small Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

Dear Editor,Abdominal aortic aneurysm is often asymptomatic, less recognized, and causes considerable mortality and morbidity, if missed. The incidence varies from country to country and the occurrence is influenced by modifiable (smoking, coronary heart disease, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and prolonged steroid therapy) and non-modifiable risk factors (increasing age, male gender, and positive...
