ABSTRACT
Development of a pseudoaneurysm around the ankle is an uncommon complication after surgery. We experienced a case of a pseudoaneurysm, which developed from the anterior tibial artery. A 44-year-old woman had sustained painful swelling of her right ankle after the removal of implants for a distal fibular fracture. The pseudoaneurysm was confirmed by ultrasonography and angiography. The patient was treated with an intervention using a coil and recovered without further complaints. This case report aims to increase the awareness of this complication with review of literature.
