Endovascular treatment of a post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm arising from a ruptured posterior tibial artery with Menox. A case report

Posterior tibial artery pseudoaneurysms are rare and can occur in the setting of trauma. Endovascular treatment of post-traumatic pseudoaneurysms has become a viable less-invasive method particularly in young patients in whom the presence of collaterals guarantees distal vascularization. We report a...
