Abstract
Peripheral artery aneurysms are dangerous with possible complications such as ruptures, bleeding, thromboembolism in the distal bed with subsequent tissue ischemia, neurological disorders due to pressure of closely located nerve trunks. One of the most common causes of peripheral artery aneurysms is trauma. Special attention should be paid to a significant increase in the number of iatrogenic injuries. From 2000 to 2019, 46 patients were operated on the arteries of the lower extremities. Operations of various types of reconstructions were performed. The total age of the patients ranged from 30 to 76 years, the average age of the patients was 43.3± 6.5 years. A total of 6 (9.2%) patients were operated on with combined aneurysmal lesion of the femoral and popliteal arteries. In the postoperative period, 91.5% of patients with peripheral artery aneurysm had positive clinical results. 4 (8.5%) developed complications. Long-term results were tracked in the period from 3 months to 3 years. A clinical examination was performed, supplemented by ultrasound control. 2 cases of thrombosis in the distal anastomosis were identified, which were restored after reconstruction of the distal anastomosis.
