Unusual pseudoaneurysm of Dacron femoro-popliteal graft shaft. A case report.
An unusual case of pseudoaneurysm in the mid segment of a Dacron femoro-popliteal graft is reported. The radiological diagnosis was based on computed tomography which correlated well with the surgical findings. A manufacturing defect seems to be the most likely cause of this pseudoaneurysm.
