Endovascular treatment of late complications after peripheral vascular bypass grafting - false aneurysm at the distal anastomosis
Chirurgia Polska 2006;8(3):223-227.
Abstract
A case is presented of a patient with a false aneurysm at the distal anastomosis of the femoropopliteal
bypass who received a peripheral stent-graft to repair vascular defects. Current knowledge on the etiology,
pathomechanisms of development, and treatment of such complications is also presented. Finally,
the potential use of minimally invasive procedures in the treatment of late complications following reconstructive
surgery is discussed.
