ASCANO ORTEGA, Alicia. Post-traumatic peripheral aneurisms: clinical costs and surgical treatment. Rev. Med. Electrón. [online]. 2012, vol.34, n.6, pp.678-685. ISSN 1684-1824.

There are few reports on distal aneurisms in the literature because of their scarce presence in the medical clinic. Their etiology is diverse and their treatment differs individually in each case. We present three patients carrying truly, post-traumatic, peripheral aneurisms. They were diagnosed and treated in the Republic of Yemen, in the period 2006-2009, during the Cuban medical collaboration in that country. In all of them the therapeutic results were satisfactory.

Keywords : truly aneurisms; peripheral arterial aneurisms; post-traumatic aneurisms.
