  • Title: [Coil embolization therapy in post-traumatic pseudoaneurysms and arteriovenous fistula of knee and leg arteries].

    Abstract:
    Pseudoaneurysms remain a rare complication of knee and leg trauma. They may go unnoticed and manifest late after the initial trauma; they are often associated with arteriovenous fistula. No standard treatment is recognized. We report a case of post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the inferior articular artery of the knee, treated by coil embolization and a case of post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the anterior tibial artery associated with an arteriovenous fistula, treated with coil embolization and decompression surgery. Follow-up in both patients was satisfactory.
