[Successful surgical treatment of a multiple ruptured true saphenous vein aneurysm after an anterior femoro-tibial bypass].
Despite the fact, that we have been using the saphena magna as an autolog transplantatum for femoro-popliteal bypass since more than 50 years, the true aneurysma of the saphena graft is rare. Generally the aneurysma formations are detectable years after the primary operation, often in a life or limb threatening form. In our publication we report a successfully operated case of ruptured true saphena aneurysma. The multiplex aneurysma was operated on after a femoro-tibial anterior bypass operation, performed seven years earlier. The patient was normotensiv, without any laboratory sign of hyperlipidaemia. For the reconstruction we used autolog vein, from the upper limb.
