Peripheral aneurysms, including true atherosclerotic, mycotic, and traumatic types, were surgically treated in 15 patients between 1970-1990. Surgical intervention yielded good results, with few complications, demonstrating effective management of these vascular conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Vascular Medicine
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Peripheral aneurysms are uncommon vascular conditions affecting arteries outside the aorta.
  • Understanding the diverse etiologies and locations of peripheral aneurysms is crucial for effective management.
  • This study reviews a series of peripheral aneurysm cases managed over two decades.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the incidence, etiology, and clinical presentation of peripheral aneurysms.
  • To evaluate the outcomes of surgical treatment for various types of peripheral aneurysms.
  • To identify potential complications and long-term results of managing peripheral aneurysms.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 17 peripheral aneurysm cases in 15 patients from January 1970 to December 1990.

  • Classification of aneurysms based on etiology: false, true atherosclerotic, mycotic, and traumatic.
  • Surgical treatment was performed in 15 cases, with follow-up ranging from 1 to 18 years.
  • Main Results:

    • A total of 17 peripheral aneurysms were identified: 4 false, 9 true atherosclerotic, 2 mycotic, and 2 traumatic.
    • Common locations included popliteal (5), superficial femoral (2), profunda femoris (2), and anterior tibial arteries.
    • Surgical treatment in 15 patients had generally good outcomes, with one case of infection and one fatal renal insufficiency.

    Conclusions:

    • Peripheral aneurysms present with varied etiologies and require tailored surgical approaches.
    • Surgical management is effective for peripheral aneurysms, though potential complications must be considered.
    • Long-term follow-up is essential to assess outcomes and manage late complications of peripheral aneurysm treatment.
