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

ABSTRACT: 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.

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.

Endovascular treatment for traumatic thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm: a case report.

Project description:Cases of an endovascular treatment for traumatic aortic injury are extremely rare. A prompt diagnosis of traumatic thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm through a 3-dimensional computed tomographic angiography of aorta and emergency repair are mandatory to rescue the life-threatening condition. An endovascular treatment is a trend for traumatic aortic injury because of lower invasivity, morbidity and mortality. We reported a rare case of traumatic aortic injury with thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm definitively diagnosed by the reconstructional computed tomographic angiography of aorta and successfully treated with endovascular stent-graft.

Ruptured infected popliteal artery aneurysm treated with endovascular therapy: A case report.

Project description:An 86-year-old woman was admitted for a ruptured popliteal artery aneurysm (rPAA, 26 × 28 mm). Due to the patient's age and comorbidities, emergency endovascular repair was performed. After the failed antegrade guidewire crossing, a retrograde approach from the anterior tibial artery and snaring was performed for lesion crossing, and stentgraft (5 × 50 mm) was deployed from antegrade fashion. At the 14-month follow-up, computed tomography angiogram demonstrated stentgraft patency and reduced aneurysmal size. Although open surgery remains the first-line treatment for infected rPAA, our approach adds to the evidence and can be applied to emergency cases or high-risk surgical patients.

Angio-Seal Closure for Traumatic Left Subclavian Artery Pseudoaneurysm: A Case Report.

Project description:Subclavian artery pseudoaneurysms are rare and associated with high morbidity and mortality. Alternative approaches to open surgical repair can include endovascular repair or ultrasound-guided thrombin injection. Here, we describe a safe and novel technique of closure of a subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm with Angio-Seal that was unresponsive to thrombin injection and in a difficult location for open repair.

Huge traumatic pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm.

Project description:Pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm is a very rare complication of penetrating thoracic trauma. We present a case of a 27-year-old woman who developed a 6.5-cm traumatic pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm after suffering multiple stab wounds to the chest and the abdomen. The pseudoaneurysm was successfully treated endovascularly with vascular plug occlusion and coil embolization.

Balloon-mounted covered stent as endovascular management of a traumatic cervical internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm in a 23-year-old: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundDistal cervical internal carotid artery (cICA) pseudoaneurysms are uncommon. They may lead to thromboembolic or hemorrhagic complications, especially in young adults. We report one of the first cases in the literature regarding the management via PK Papyrus (Biotronik, Lake Oswego, Oregon, USA) balloon-mounted covered stent of a 23-year-old male with an enlarging cervical carotid artery pseudoaneurysm and progressive internal carotid artery stenosis.Case descriptionWe report the management of a 23-year-old male with an enlarging cervical carotid artery pseudoaneurysm and progressive internal carotid artery stenosis. Based on clinical judgment and imaging analysis, the best option to seal the aneurysm was a PK Papyrus 5×26 balloon-mounted covered stent. A follow-up angiogram showed no residual filling of the pseudoaneurysm, but there was some contrast stagnation just proximal to the stent, which is consistent with a residual dissection flap. We then deployed another PK Papyrus 5×26 balloon-mounted covered stent, providing some overlap at the proximal end of the stent. An angiogram following this subsequent deployment demonstrated complete reconstruction of the cICA with no residual evidence of pseudoaneurysm or dissection flap. There were no residual in-stent stenosis or vessel stenosis. The patient was discharged the day after the procedure with no complications.ConclusionsThese positive outcomes support the use of a balloon-mounted covered stent as a safe and feasible modality with high technical success for endovascular management of pseudoaneurysm.

Successful Endovascular Repair of a Ruptured Popliteal Artery Aneurysm: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:Introduction. It is rare for a popliteal artery aneurysm (PAA) to present with rupture. This case reports a longer-term success in the management of a large ruptured popliteal artery aneurysm with an endovascular approach, with a literature review of management of such cases. Case Report. An 80-year-old man presented to the accident and emergency department with pain and swelling behind the left knee and at the back of the thigh. An ultrasound scan and subsequent CT angiogram revealed a large 9.4?cm ruptured PAA. The patient had significant comorbidities deeming him unfit for a major surgical intervention of drainage of haematoma and exclusion bypass. Therefore, he underwent urgent endovascular treatment of the ruptured PAA with a covered stent graft. A follow-up duplex scan at 1 year showed a patent stent with no evidence of endoleak, and the patient remained asymptomatic. A clinical follow-up at 18- and 24-month postprocedure showed a patent stent graft and complete resolution of haematoma. Conclusion. Whilst open repair with exclusion bypass may still be a treatment of choice, an endovascular approach is both safe and effective in the management of a ruptured PAA in an unfit patient with an acceptable longer-term outcome.

Coil embolization for ruptured coronary pseudoaneurysm causing haemopericardium: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundCoronary artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare disease that can rupture and cause haemopericardium. It can occur principally as a complication after coronary artery instrumentation, but it can also result from trauma.Case summaryA 15-year-old male patient with a history of spontaneous pneumothoraces treated twice with video-assisted thoracoscopic thoracic surgery presented with pericarditis and increasing haemopericardium. During the hospitalization, he had developed cardiogenic shock and he underwent emergent pericardiocentesis. Coronary angiography revealed a small right coronary artery pseudoaneurysm. We successfully coil embolized the pseudoaneurysm.DiscussionThis is a rare case of a ruptured coronary artery pseudoaneurysm associated with prior tube thoracostomy. The treatments for a coronary pseudoaneurysm should be tailored based on the pathologic and anatomical characteristics.

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

Project description: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.
