pseudoaneurysms (psa) of deep femoral artery (dfa) have been reported following penetrating and blunt trauma to the thigh and orthopedic procedures of the proximal femur. we describe a case of pseudoaneurysm of dfa as a late complication of limb trauma which was confirmed by exploration in an urgent surgery. after two operations successful surgical repair was performed.

conclusions propofol provided a safe and acceptable sedation for post-cabg surgical patients, significantly reduced the requirement for analgesics, and allowed for more rapid tracheal extubation than midazolam but did not result in earlier icu discharge. results the depth of sedation was almost the same in the two groups (rss=4.5 in midazolam group vs 4.7 in propofol group; p = 0.259) but the t...

variations in the origin of axillary artery branches are common. but, distinctly abnormal course of its posterior circumflex humeral branch is rare. we are reporting a case of posterior circumflex humeral artery (pcha) originating from the axillary artery, passing through lower triangular space to reach the scapular region where it accompanied the axillary nerve and posterior circumflex humeral...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to describe the relationship between the deep peroneal nerve and the dorsalis pedis artery to help ensure a safer surgical approach in flap surgery. METHODS The dissection of 36 cadaver lower limbs was undertaken to describe the relationship of the deep peroneal nerve to the dorsalis pedis artery in the anterior tarsal tunnel and on the dorsum of the foot....

The third part of the axillary artery unilaterally divides into two major arterial stems, named according to their localization as deep brachial artery and superficial brachial artery (brachial artery). The deep brachial artery gives off the posterior circumflex humeral artery, anterior circumflex humeral artery, subscapular artery, and profunda brachii artery. It continues its course in the ar...

AIM To analyze the association of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase polymorphisms (MTHFR-677 and MTHFR-1298) with occlusive artery disease and deep venous thrombosis in Macedonians. METHODS We examined 83 healthy respondents, 76 patients with occlusive artery disease, and 67 patients with deep venous thrombosis. Blood samples were collected and DNA was isolated from peripheral blood leukocy...

INTRODUCTION The axillary artery presents abnormalities in its origin and course and a variable branching. CASE DESCRIPTION A rare case of axillary artery bifurcation and branching was observed in a 60-years-old European male cadaver of Greek origin. The right axillary artery at the second part was bifurcated into a superficial and a deep brachial artery. The superficial brachial artery anter...
