Pseudoaneurysm of a high-division anterior tibial artery following primary TKA.

ABSTRACT: Arterial complications following total knee arthroplasty are rare but carry a high risk of significant morbidity and mortality. Herein, the authors report a case of pseudoaneurysm in a branch of a high-division anterior tibial artery caused by laceration by the retractor following primary total knee arthroplasty in a 72-year-old woman. The patient presented with an unexplained hematoma and an enlarging swelling, with pallor and acute hemorrhage on the first postoperative day. The diagnosis was confirmed by arteriography and the patient was successfully treated using endovascular embolization without long-term complications. Because of the high risk of progression to a potentially limb- or life-threatening condition, it is important to discuss the risk factors for this complication, as well as its early diagnosis and treatment methods.

Traumatic Pseudoaneurysm of Anterior Tibial Artery Treated by Thrombin Injection.

Project description:Traumatic pseudoaneurysm of limb arteries are relatively rare. A 70-year-old gentleman, with history of mechanical aortic valve implantation on warfarin, presented to the emergency department with pain and swelling in the right leg. He had sustained blunt injury to the leg, a week prior to presentation. On examination, the lateral compartment of the leg was swollen, ecchymotic, and tense. Distal pulses were well palpable. An ultrasound Doppler evaluation revealed a large intramuscular hematoma in the lateral compartment with a pseudoaneurysm of a muscular branch of the anterior tibial artery. An ultrasound-guided compression of the pseudoaneurysm was initially attempted for 24 hours, which failed in closing off the pseudoaneurysm. He was subsequently taken up for thrombin injection into the pseudoaneurysm, which resulted in instant thrombosis of the pseudoaneurysm, with an uneventful clinical course thereafter. Thrombin injection is an effective and safe modality to treat pseudoaneurysms of limb arteries.

Superficial Temporal Artery Pseudoaneurysm following Midface Thread-lift.

Project description:Facial thread-lifting has been popular because of its ease and safety with short down time. However, many physicians perform the procedure in cosmetic clinics, which can result in several complications. This report describes the surgical treatment of iatrogenic superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm (STAP) following thread-lifting. A 27-year-old man developed a painless, pulsating soft mass in the pre-auricular region after undergoing a thread-lift in a private cosmetic clinic 3 months before being referred to the authors' hospital. The mass was diagnosed as a STAP, using magnetic resonance imaging. The pseudoaneurysm was resected completely, and the superficial temporal artery was microsurgically reconstructed. Although there are some surgical procedures for treating STAP, such as surgical resection and embolization, the former is considered the first choice. Physicians should be trained before performing thread-lifting and must know the possibility of an iatrogenic STAP appearing after the procedure and the face and neck anatomy to prevent complications.

An Unusual Volar Wrist Mass: Radial Artery Pseudoaneurysm Following Transradial Catheterization.

Project description:Arterial pseudoaneurysms can develop secondary to a vessel injury, for example, an arterial line installation. We present a case of an 18-year-old female with mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes syndrome who developed left radial artery and right brachial artery pseudoaneurysms secondary to arterial line placement and repeated blood draws, respectively. The ultrasonographic features of pulsating mass in connection with an artery and the yin-yang sign, combined with the patient's history, allowed accurate diagnosis. She was referred to vascular surgery for definitive treatment.

Radial Artery Pseudoaneurysm following Cardiac Catheterization: A Nonsurgical Conservative Management Approach.

Project description:A radial artery pseudoaneurysm represents a rare, potentially catastrophic complication of arterial cannulation that has been reported after cardiac catheterization. Treatment options are limited to chemical, mechanical, and combined approaches to obliterate the radial artery pseudoaneurysm and tract. Manual compression protocols using the TR Band have been variableand anecdotal, without objective measurements of adequate compression, making this technique prone to failure (1). In this report, we present an efficient, safe, and noninvasive management for treatment of radial artery pseudoaneurysms that is cost-effective and efficient and ensures correction without occlusion of the radial artery.

A Pseudoaneurysm of the Inferior Lateral Geniculate Artery Following Total Knee Arthroplasty.

Project description:Vascular complications after total knee arthroplasty are rare. We present a case of an inferior lateral geniculate artery pseudoaneurysm which became symptomatic 10 days after total knee arthroplasty in a patient with a cardiac comorbidity and using dabigatran. The pseudoaneurysm was most likely caused by iatrogenic injury during surgery. Fourteen days after the index surgery, the patient was seen with a painful but normal post-total knee arthroplasty effused knee, with a maximum flexion angle of 80 degrees. No signs of infection, hemarthrosis, or neurovascular deficit were present. Radiographic imaging included ultrasonography and computed tomography angiography. The pseudoaneurysm was successfully treated with coil embolization. The etiology, presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of a geniculate artery pseudoaneurysm are discussed in this case report.

Primary Repair of Tibial-Sided Avulsion of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament.

Project description:Lesions of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are common; the current gold standard of treatment for such lesions is ACL reconstruction. Tibial-sided soft-tissue avulsion is a rare subtype of ACL injuries. Unlike femoral-sided ACL repair, surgery for acute tibial-sided ACL ruptures has been neither reported nor described. This technical note presents a method for primary anatomic ACL reinsertion for an acute distal soft-tissue avulsion-type ACL injury, using a transosseous pull-out repair technique. Our technique, as an alternative to reconstruction, has the potential to enhance healing due to marrow stimulation (tibial tunneling). It also preserves the native insertion site and proprioceptive function, which may, in turn, reduce the risk of post-traumatic osteoarthritis.

Endovascular treatment of a post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm arising from a ruptured posterior tibial artery with Menox. A case report.

Project description:Posterior tibial artery pseudoaneurysms are rare and can occur in the setting of trauma. Endovascular treatment of post-traumatic pseudoaneurysms has become a viable less-invasive method particularly in young patients in whom the presence of collaterals guarantees distal vascularization. We report an unusual case of a 16-year- old patient who sustained blunt trauma to his right lower extremity due to a bicycle injury and developed a delayed symptomatic pseudoaneurysm of the posterior tibial artery in the absence of tibia fracture. Superselective endovascular treatment with Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol Copolymer based liquid embolic system (Menox) was successfully performed, achieving exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm with preservation of the remaining vascularization of the lower limb.

Opening Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy and Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction or Revision.

Project description:High tibial osteotomy (HTO) is a valid treatment option for young active patients with medial tibiofemoral osteoarthrosis (OA) and varus deformity. Sometimes medial OA is combined with symptomatic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency. Although isolated HTO (with possible delayed ACL reconstruction) might be indicated in the older population, young active patients may require combined HTO and ACL reconstruction. In addition, an abnormally increased tibial slope may predispose to ACL reconstruction failure and should be addressed for a successful ACL revision. The combination of HTO and ACL reconstruction produces good results, with resumption of normal daily activities, as well as recreational sports, and does not seem to increase the risk of complications compared with isolated HTO. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our indications, planning, and technique for opening wedge HTO fixed with a spacer plate and anatomic soft-tissue (autograft or allograft) ACL reconstruction, with proximal extracortical suspension and distal interference screw fixation.
