Successful Stenting of Iatrogenic Anterior Tibial Artery Pseudoaneurysm
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION The use of covered tibial stents extends beyond the treatment of atherosclerotic disease. Tibial artery pseudoaneurysms have traditionally been managed with open surgery; however, the endovascular option is an emerging treatment. REPORT This report describes endovascular management of an iatrogenic anterior tibial artery pseudoaneurysm using a covered stent. CONCLUSION This case highlights the use of a covered stent for pseudoaneurysm exclusion, vascular control, and to minimize dissection in a patient with multiple previous surgeries.

This study reports the case of an 87-year-old woman who presented with a nonresolving haematoma 13 weeks following tibiotalar arthrodesis surgery on her right ankle using a retrograde nail. This was revealed by angiography to be a pseudoaneurysm of the anterior tibial artery. The patient subsequently underwent endovascular stenting of the pseudoaneurysm and has had a successful recovery. This c...
متن کاملPseudoaneurysm of the Anterior Tibial Artery following Ankle Arthroscopy in a Soccer Player
Ankle arthroscopy carries a lower risk of vascular complications when standard anterolateral and anteromedial portals are used. However, the thickness of the fat pad at the anterior ankle affords little protection for the thin-walled anterior tibial artery, rendering it susceptible to indirect damage during procedures performed on the anterior ankle joint. To our knowledge, only 11 cases of pse...

BACKGROUND Pseudoaneurysm formation is rare complication after arthroscopy with incidence of 0.008%, easy to misdiagnose. Its potential catastrophic sequelae should not be underestimated. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of missed diagnosis of traumatic anterior tibial artery pseudoaneurysm in a 39 years old female, instead treated as post operative arthroscopy infection. The diagnosis was...
متن کاملNonunion of the tibial facture as a consequence of posterior tibial artery pseudoaneurysm
Pseudoaneurysm of the posterior tibial artery (PTA) is uncommon, and they mainly occur following high-velocity trauma, open fractures and can be iatrogenic in nature. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported and successfully treated case of PTA pseudoaneurysm identified as a consequence of tibia fracture nonunion in an otherwise healthy young individual 6 months following the or...

BACKGROUND Popliteal fossa pseudoaneurysms as a result of trauma are not uncommon. However, spontaneous pseudoaneurysms as a result of non-traumatic rupture of posterior tibial artery (PTA), anterior tibial artery (ATA), or tibioperoneal trunk (TPT) artery segment are extremely rare. We report a case of spontaneous popliteal fossa pseudoaneurysm resulting from spontaneous avulsion of the ATA an...
