Arterial aneurysms are very rare in children, and aneurysms with an idiopathic etiology have been reported in only a few cases. In most cases, aneurysms are caused by infection, arteritides, collagen vascular disease, vascular malformations, or trauma. We report the case of an 11-year-old girl with an idiopathic and symptomatic left common iliac artery aneurysm. The aneurysm was resected and replaced by a reversed femoral vein. Because the external iliac artery was atrophied, an additional bypass with a reversed great saphenous vein was made. In the postoperative work-up, no etiologic cause could be found for the development of the aneurysm. The symptoms immediately subsided after the operation.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the single-energy metal artifact reduction (SEMAR) algorithm in reducing metal artifacts and enhancing image quality in contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) for patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with coil embolization. Thirty-eight patients (mean age 81.0 ± 6 years; 31 men, 7 women) who underwent contrast-enhanced CT following EVAR and internal iliac artery coil embolization between September 2022 and May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.

Background: No appropriate studies have been conducted that compare the biomechanical properties of different fenestration positions in deep circumflex iliac artery (DCIA)-vascularized iliac bone grafts for femoral head necrosis (ONFH) treatment. In this study, we aimed to explore the fenestration locations of DCIA-vascularized iliac grafting in ONFH treatment using FEA and clinical retrospective analysis.
Methods: We simulated an iliac bone flap transplantation with a vascularized tip by finite element analysis (FEA).
Idiopathic multiple peripheral arterial dissections:A case report.

Introduction: Compared to aortic dissection and isolated visceral artery dissection, multiple peripheral arterial dissections have not been formally reported to date. Currently, there is no well-established treatment for this condition, and large-scale studies with extensive sample data are lacking.
Case Presentation: A 56-year-old male, was provisionally diagnosed with " idiopathic multiple peripheral arterial dissections.
Identifying a Reliable Intra-articular Landmark to Avoid Vascular Injury During Transacetabular Screw Fixation: A 3D Computed Tomography Study.

Introduction: Vascular injury during acetabular screw fixation is a life-threatening complication of total hip arthroplasty. This study uses three-dimensional computed tomography to (1) measure absolute distance from the external iliac artery (EIA) to the acetabulum, (2) determine available bone stock along the EIA path, and (3) create a novel acetabular vascular risk map.
Methods: A retrospective radiographic study was conducted using three-dimensional CT.
