A docking site is the terminus of travel of two segments of bone that are gradually brought into approximation, normally associated with the bone transport technique in limb reconstruction. Traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the peroneal artery have been reported following different types of trauma and orthopedic procedures performed in the distal leg. One uncommon case of delayed peroneal artery pseudoaneurysm following surgical docking site is described. The diagnosis was supported by angiography. Embolization with coil was a successful method of treatment. We recommend a safe method of osteotomy with good bone exposure and adequate soft tissue protection.

Abstract
A docking site is the terminus of travel of two segments of bone that are gradually brought into approximation, normally associated with the bone transport technique in limb reconstruction. Traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the peroneal artery have been reported following different types of trauma and orthopedic procedures performed in the distal leg. One uncommon case of delayed peroneal artery pseudoaneurysm following surgical docking site is described. The diagnosis was supported by angiography. Embolization with coil was a successful method of treatment. We recommend a safe method of osteotomy with good bone exposure and adequate soft tissue protection.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
