ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo evaluate surgical management of femoral pseudoaneurysm caused by injection of addictive drugs.MethedsData of 18 cases were reviewed and analysed retrospectively.13 patients underwent primary expanded polytetrafluoroethylene(ePTFE) external iliofemoral bypass (end to side) grafting. Postoperative anastomotic burst and bleeding in one of the 3 patients undergoing saphenous vein autotransplant in situ was successfully treated by ePTFE grafting. Results All of the grafts were patent as demonstrated by postoperative color Dopler ultrasonography. Although 2 patients had their femoral arteries ligated, limbs of all the 18 patients were salvaged.ConclusionsWhen a suitable saphenous vein is not available for autotransplantation, an artificial vessel grafting is still an effective procedure for managing femoral artery false aneurysm.During operation thorough debridement and avoidance of artificial vessel contamination are the most important factors for preventing infective complications of the graft.
