Case:
Pseudoaneurysms of the peroneal artery around the ankle joint have rarely been reported. We present the case of a 64-year-old man with a pseudoaneurysm of the anterior perforating branch of the peroneal artery associated with a screw inserted from the anterolateral distal tibia during ankle arthrodesis. Endovascular treatment with selective catheterization and coil embolization was successfully performed. The ankle joint achieved bone union without delay, and the pseudoaneurysm did not recur at the 18-month follow-up.
Conclusion:
This is the first report describing a pseudoaneurysm of the peroneal artery after ankle arthrodesis. Successful outcomes can be achieved by endovascular treatment.
