title: Anastomotic pseudoaneurysm formation after bypass grafting to porcelainized peroneal artery: successful treatment by percutaneous thrombin injection.
abstract: We present a rare case of a distal anastomotic pseudoaneurysm after bypass grafting to a porcelainized peroneal artery. Successful management was achieved by percutaneous thrombin injection. This case illustrates the value of nonsurgical intervention for this rare but difficult problem.
