Surgical Treatment for Right Anterior Tibial Artery Aneurysm

True aneurysms of the anterior tibial artery are rare with less than 20 published reports in the literature. We report an urgent endovascular repair of a true anterior tibial artery aneurysm in a patient with Ehlers-Danlos type IV, vascular type. This approach resulted in an uneventful recovery without the elevated risks associated with open vascular repair in the setting of connective tissue disorder. Continuous follow-up in the subsequent 4 years has demonstrated durability and efficacy of the original intervention.

The Right

Mycotic aneurysms resulting from endocarditis are uncommon, and patients having aneurysms in multiple locations are rare. We report on a case of a patient having both infrapopliteal and cerebral mycotic aneurysms as a result of endocarditis. A patient was referred to the vascular lab for a lower extremity venous duplex, which incidentally demonstrated an infrapopliteal aneurysm of the right tibio-peroneal trunk. Computed tomography (CT) demonstrated two separate aneurysms: one at the origin of the anterior tibial artery and another involving the peroneal artery. The anterior tibial artery aneurysm was treated surgically. A transesophageal echocardiogram was performed on the patient and identified vegetation on the prosthetic aortic valve. The patient was then transferred to another facility for replacement of the prosthetic aortic valve. The patient suffered a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) postoperatively and subsequently had two cerebral mycotic aneurysms identified and treated.
