Abstract
Pseudoaneurysm is one of the most important entities after partial arterial injuries due to trauma or surgical interventions especially in areas close to the main arteries. This can be restricted or associated with significant complications. In this article, we report a case of ruptured popliteal artery pseudoaneurysm along with compartment syndrome and acute limb ischemia in a 47-year-old man who underwent surgery.
