Abstract
Stent fracture with pseudoaneurysm formation in the femoropopliteal artery has uncommonly been reported. We present the case of a 72-year-old man with a fracture of self-expanding nitinol stent and a pseudoaneurysm formation in the suprageniculate popliteal artery. The popliteal artery was successfully reconstructed with a small saphenous vein graft interposition.
