Osteochondroma as a Causal Agent in Popliteal Artery Pseudoaneurysms: Case Report and Literature Review
Further Information
Publication History
Publication Date:
12 October 2001 (online)
ABSTRACT
Osteochondromas are an infrequent, but significant, source of vascular injuries. Popliteal artery pseudoaneurysms are the most common sequelae, with a complex interplay of anatomic and developmental factors accounting for their prevalence. The authors present a case report, detailed discussion, and literature review of pseudoaneurysm formation in the popliteal artery.
KEYWORD
