Pseudoaneurysms of the profunda femoral artery (PFA) have been reported following different types of trauma, mostly iatrogenic. We present three cases of PFA false aneurysm formation, two after vascular procedures and one as a result of a gunshot injury, which were successfully treated with the endovascular deployment of covered stents. Treating these patients by endoluminal means is an efficient and feasible minimally invasive approach. If the patient is relatively stable and there are no major compression issues, stenting could be considered as adequate therapy for these situations. Certainly, a larger series are needed in order to testify to the long-term results and ascertain the durability of such a repair.
股深动脉（PFA）假性动脉瘤在不同类型创伤后均有报道，多数为医源性创伤。我们报告了3例PFA假性动脉瘤形成的病例，其中2例发生在血管手术后，1例因枪伤所致，这些病例均通过覆膜支架血管腔内植入术成功治疗。采用腔内治疗手段治疗这些患者是一种有效且可行的微创方法。如果患者相对稳定且不存在严重压迫问题，支架置入可被视为这些情况的适当治疗方法。当然，需要更大规模的系列研究来证实长期疗效并确定这种修复方法的耐久性。
