The VIABAHN stent graft is often used for traumatic and iatrogenic vascular injuries. In this case, vascular injury at both edges of the VIABAHN stent graft was noted 4 months after endovascular repair for idiopathic superficial femoral artery (SFA) rupture. The longitudinal compression of the SFA with a decrease in hematoma size was assumed to exceed the flexibility of the stent graft. Thus, the use of stent grafts for vascular injuries with giant pseudoaneurysms may result in late vascular inj ...[more]
