Background: Posttraumatic pseudoaneurysm of the peripheral arteries infrequently occurs as a late complication of arterial injury. The pseudoaneurysmatic mass may cause ischemia of the extremity. It can be easily diagnosed by history and physical examination. The advisable surgical technique consists in reconstruction of the vessel by using a saphenous vein graft interposition.
Case Study: A 25-year-old patient with posttraumatic pseudoaneurysm of the anterior tibial artery as a late complication of gunshot injury is presented which was successfully repaired in our clinic by using the reconstructive technique of saphenous vein graft interposition. |
