Objective To evaluate surgical treatment of infected femoral artery pseudoaneurysm. Methods The data on surgical treatment of 45 patients with infected femoral artery pseudoaneurysm admitted from January 2003 to June 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Fourty-three patients underwent operative treatment including excision of infected femoral artery pseudoaneurysm, exhaustive debridement and bypass graft with vascular prosthesis. Two patients were unavoidable to undergo removing of infected femoral artery pseudoaneurysm and ligating the proximal and distal artery of pseudoaneurysm because of severe infection and large volume. Results The patients were followed up from 3 to 12 months (mean 7.82 months). The limbs of all the patients underwent bypass graft with vascular prosthesis were salvaged successfully, patients of which had secondary wound healing and had not intermittent lameness. One of two patients performed ligation of artery was salvaged successfully but had severe intermittent lameness, another patient underwent high amputation above knee because of ischemic gangrene. Conclusion For infected femoral artery pseudoaneurysm, the operative treatment including excision of infected femoral artery pseudoaneurysm, exhaustive debridement and bypass graft with vascular prosthesis is effective and safe.
Objective To discuss the clinical application value of CT angiography (CTA) in traumatic pelvic artery pseudoaneurysm and dissecting aneurysm. Methods A total of 8 patients including 7 with traumatic pelvic artery pseudoaneurysm and 1 with dissecting aneurysm diagnosed by CTA in Suining Central Hospital from August 2012 to January 2016 were enrolled in this study, in whom 6 patients with traumatic pseudoaneurysm treated with embolotherapy were confirmed by digital subtraction angiography. Image post-processing techniques of CTA including curve planar reformation, multiplanar reconstruction and volume rendering were used. Results In the seven patients diagnosed as solitary traumatic pelvic artery pseudoaneurysm by CTA, 3 had superior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm, 2 had inferior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm, and 2 had external iliac artery pseudoaneurysm. The 7 pseudoaneurysms were pouch-shaped with the short diameters ranged from 9 to 64 mm and the long diameters ranged from 11 to 78 mm. Six locations of artery laceration were displayed clearly, thereinto 1 case was combined with arteriovenous fistula. In addition, a vessel occlusion caused by the limitation of right external iliac artery dissecting aneurysm and the thrombosis in left side of the external iliac artery was found in 1 case. Conclusions As a non-invasive diagnostic technique, CTA can accurately diagnose traumatic pelvic artery pseudoaneurysm and dissecting aneurysm, clearly display the location relationship of pseudoaneurysm and its parent artery, and find whether arteriovenous fistula exists. Beyond that, the true and false lumen of dissecting aneurysm can be precisely identified by this technique. CTA can provide important image information for formulating individual treatment plan.
ObjectiveTo summarize the mid-term follow-up results and postoperative aortic remodeling of treating blunt aortic injuries (BAI) with thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).MethodsA retrospective study was conducted on BAI patients treated with TEVAR, who were admitted into the Department of Vascular Surgery in Zhongshan Hospital, Affiliated to Fudan University between September 2003 and December 2015. There were 15 males and 9 females at an average age of 45.6±14.0 years. The mechanism of BAI was mainly auto car crash. Totally 25 entry tears were detected and most of them were located at the aortic isthmus.ResultsTwenty-four BAI patients survived and eventually went through TEVAR. One patient died of pulmonary embolism 1 week post-TEVAR. Rate of technical success, clinical success and perioperative mortality was 100.0%, 95.8%, and 4.2%, respectively. Nineteen patients were followed up with a mean time of 35.1(13-87) months. All of them survived this period. Based on the follow-up imaging of CTA, 18 of them revealed no endoleak or stent migration, and 1 patient of transection still had perfusion of distal false lumen at the abdominal aorta. None of the aortic segments measured in this study showed expansion of ≥5 mm during follow-up. The aorta remodeled well in 94.7% of them.ConclusionTEVAR for treating BAI appears feasible with high rates of technical and clinical success rates. The mid-term follow-up results seems satisfying, but the long-term results are yet to be assessed with further follow-up.
Objective To carry out the systematic clinical management to reduce the incidence of femoral pseudoaneurysm after interventional treatment. Methods A historical controlled study was used to compare the management effect before (from October 2012 to October 2013) and after (from March 2014 to March 2015) the application of doctor-nurse integrated systematic clinical management mode. This work mode enhanced cooperation between doctors and nurses, formed the clinical path for nursing workflows and contingency plans, and strengthened specialized education and training for nurses. Results After the implementation of systematic clinical management, the incidence of femoral pseudoaneurysm was significantly lower than before (1.0% vs. 2.7%), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions The systematic clinical management, carrying out in the doctor-nurse integration mode, can improve the quality of nursing and reduce the incidence of femoral pseudoaneurysm. And the management model has achieved remarkable results. So it is worth to be applied in the clinical practices.

They were:1.ligating the vessels;2. repairing the defected area in thearterial watl: 3, anastomosing the vessels after the peudoaneurysms being removed; 4, repoiring thearteries with vessel grafts after the resection of the poudoaneurysm or by-passing operation. Of the 4different methed, the method 3 and 4 gave the best results. It was thought that the operation should bep...
ObjectiveTo explore the value of modified method for intratumoral injection of thrombin in the treatment of iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms.MethodsClinical data of 28 patients with iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms after interventional treatment in our hospital from October 2012 to June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Twenty-one cases were treated with ultrasound-guided thrombin injection for pseudoaneurysms (Ultrasound group), and seven cases were treated with DSA-mediated balloon occlusion and thrombin injection for pseudoaneurysms (DSA group). The patients were followed-up at 1 day, 1 month and 3 monthS after operation.ResultsThe total success rates of the two groups were 100%. There was no treatment-related complications in the two groups. There was no recurrence after 1–3 months of treatment.ConclusionsIntratumoral injection of thrombin can be used for the treatment of iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm. The effect of the improved treatment is more significant. These two methods can be used as the best way to treat iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm with different neck diameters.
Objective To summarize the revascularization method of infective femoral false aneurysm caused by drug injection. Methods Between November 2003 and May 2009, 84 patients with infective femoral false aneurysm caused by drug injection were treated, and the cl inical data were analysed retrospectively. There were 67 males and 17 females with anaverage age of 34.6 years (range, 19-51 years). The average duration of drug injection was 2.7 years (range, 1-11 years). In 13 cases, the defect of femoral artery was 3-10 cm; defect ranged from 1.0 cm × 0.3 cm to 3.0 cm × 0.7 cm in the others. The surgical treatment included bypass using synthetic grafts in 5 cases, great saphenous veins transplantation in 29 cases, repair of femoral artery in 24 cases, and l igation of femoral artery in 26 cases. Results Two cases died of intraoperative pulmonary embol ism. Eight cases had postoperative wound infection, which was cured after changing dressings. Incisions healed by first intention in the other paitents. A total of 82 cases were followed up 12-36 months (mean, 17.3 months). In 56 patients undergoing artery reconstruction or repair, dorsal pedis artery pulse was significantly improved, and no distal osteofascial compartment syndrome occurred. In 26 patients undergoing femoral artery l igation, angiography at 1 week after operation showed abundant collateral circulation from ipsilateral internal il iac artery, superior gluteal artery or contralateral internal il iac artery. Three cases had postoperative intermittent claudication which was improved after symptomatic treatment. Conclusion Infective femoral false aneurysm caused by drug injection should be treated surgerically as early as possible, and effective treatments include debridement, drainage, defect repair or bypass with synthetic graft or great saphenous vein from homonymy external il iac artery to superficial femoral artery. Ligation of femoral artery is an option in patients with serious infection when revascularization is impossible.
