Profunda femoris artery aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms are a rare cause of peripheral arterial aneurysms but their risk of rupture is quite high. We have presented a case of a left lower leg pseudoaneurysm. We have shown that endovascular repair with angioplasty and stenting is a suitable treatment method for such a pseudoaneurysm. Due to the limited data on this disease, we suggest multi-institute collaboration to identify and standardize management for the treatment.
股深动脉动脉瘤和假性动脉瘤是周围动脉动脉瘤的罕见病因,但其破裂风险相当高。我们报告了一例左小腿假性动脉瘤病例。我们已经表明,血管成形术和支架置入的血管内修复是治疗此类假性动脉瘤的合适方法。由于关于这种疾病的数据有限,我们建议多机构合作以确定并规范治疗管理。
