Traumatic tibial Artery Pseudoaneurysms have historically been treated through highly invasive surgical options. With the advent of newer minimally invasive technologies the challenges of invasive surgery in the peripheral anatomies can be mitigated. Reports on the use of these minimally invasive technologies for the treatment of Traumatic Tibial Artery Pseudoaneurysms can be found in many academic and non academic sources.
One of these reports is the case submitted by Dr. LARINI at the Italian Hospital “OSPEDALE MAGGIORE DI PARMA”, in which a 3.0 x 19 Direct-Stent Stent Graft was used in a 30 year old patient to successfully exclude a pesudoaneurysm obtaining great flow and patency. The patient was admitted with an aneurysm caused by an external tool in a work accident.
It's these amazing cases that excite us. We are pleased to share them with you and hope you will share with others.
It is very encouraging to hear success stories like this. Any body knows what the anti-platelet therapy looks like for these type of patients? compared to those with a DES. I know it depends with the care provider but I wonder if anyone has a good insight about this.
