Acute popliteal artery thrombosis is a rare and limb-threatening traumatic event. It can lead to soft-tissue necrosis or even amputation of the lower limb. In patients suffering from trauma around the knee joint, the clinician should be highly vigilant to risk of popliteal artery acute thrombosis. It is essential to detect and treat acute popliteal artery thrombosis timely for limb salvaging. We present a case of acute popliteal artery thrombosis resulting from a closed comminuted tibia fracture and discuss its injury mechanism, diagnostic methods, and treatment measures.
急性腘动脉血栓形成是一种罕见的、危及肢体的创伤性事件。它可导致软组织坏死,甚至下肢截肢。在膝关节周围创伤的患者中,临床医生应高度警惕腘动脉急性血栓形成的风险。及时发现和治疗急性腘动脉血栓形成对于肢体挽救至关重要。我们报告了一例由闭合性粉碎性胫骨骨折引起的急性腘动脉血栓形成病例,并讨论了其损伤机制、诊断方法和治疗措施。
