Multiple peripheral arteries aneurysms: clinical aspects and surgery
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 12
Abstract
Multiple arteries aneurysms in the forearm, wrist and thigh are relatively uncommon but is a reality. It’s wy we propose to do systematiquely a CT scan or MRI angiographie to look for another asymptomatique aneurysm. Successful preservation of life and limb is possible with early recognition and surgical reconstruction. In the first case of 79-year-old man the surgical care was done with resection of aneurysm sac and direct closure of three vessels by running stitches. In the second case of 62 old woman the surgical care was a resection of radial aneurysm followed by end to end anastomosis with running stitches ; resction of the ulnary aneurym followed by the reconstruction using cephalique vein conduit in the forearm. In the third case of 57 years old gentleman both aneurysm was totally resected and the reconstruction using great saphenous vein conduit was performed. Surgery is still a good and safe option for the care of multiple peripheral arterial aneurysms, with good outcomes.
