Resumo

Resumo: Os aneurismas verdadeiros de artéria femoral profunda são extremamente raros, representando cerca de 0,5% do total dos aneurismas periféricos. Neste relato, descrevemos um paciente de 79 anos de idade, sexo masculino, com histórico de abordagem cirúrgica prévia convencional devido a aneurisma de aorta abdominal, que deu entrada no Serviço de Cirurgia Vascular do Hospital das Clínicas com quadro de claudicação intermitente de membros inferiores. Foi realizado eco-Doppler colorido arterial do membro inferior direito, que revelou doença arterial periférica femoro-poplítea e infrapatelar. A angiotomografia computadorizada identificou oclusão aortoilíaca e do enxerto bifurcado desde o segmento infrarrenal da aorta, além de aneurisma de artéria femoral profunda de 3,7 x 3,5 cm de diâmetro com 7 cm de extensão. Procedeu-se com a ressecção do aneurisma e revascularização da artéria femoral profunda por interposição de prótese de Dacron® e reimplante de artéria femoral superficial na prótese. Portanto, nos casos de aneurisma de artéria femoral profunda concomitante a doença arterial periférica, deve-se atentar para revascularização e perfusão adequada do membro inferior.

Abstract

True deep femoral artery aneurysms are extremely rare, accounting for about 0.5% of all peripheral aneurysms. In this report, we describe a 79-year-old male patient with a history of prior abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery via a conventional approach who was admitted to the vascular surgery service at the Hospital das Clínicas with intermittent claudication of the lower limbs. Arterial color-Doppler ultrasonography of the right lower limb was performed, revealing peripheral arterial disease of the femoral--popliteal and infrapatellar segments. Computed tomography angiography identified aortoiliac and bifurcated graft occlusion from the infrarenal segment of the aorta, in addition to a deep femoral artery aneurysm with diameters of 3.7 cm x 3.5 cm and length of 7 cm. Resection of the aneurysm was followed by revascularization of the deep femoral artery by interposition of a Dacron graft and reimplantation of the superficial femoral artery into the graft. In cases of deep femoral artery aneurysms with concomitant peripheral arterial disease, it is important to ensure revascularization and adequate perfusion of the lower limb.
