ABSTRACT

Femoral artery pseudoaneurysm associated with arteriovenous fistula is a complication of endovascular interventional procedures. However, no cases have been described in which both lesions occur as the result of trauma surgery and specifically that they are side effects to the placement of a gamma nail in the femur with a distal locking screw. We describe the case of a patient who presented femoral artery pseudoaneurysm concomitant with arteriovenous fistula, in which there were no suspicious clinical signs. The diagnosis was established using computed tomography, confirmed by arteriography and treated with the placement of metallic coils.


El pseudoaneurisma de arteria femoral asociado a fístula arteriovenosa es una complicación de los procedimientos intervencionistas endovasculares. Sin embargo, no se han descrito casos en los que ambas lesiones se produzcan como consecuencia de cirugía traumatológica y, en concreto, que sean secundarias a la colocación de clavo gamma en fémur con tornillo de bloqueo distal. Se describe el caso de una paciente que presentó pseudoaneurisma de arteria femoral concomitante con fístula arteriovenosa, en la que no existieron signos clínicos de sospecha. El diagnóstico se estableció mediante tomografía computarizada, se confirmó con arteriografía y se trató mediante la colocación de coils metálicos.
