“…This is often described by many other authors at initial presentation. 12,13,20 MRI evaluation was specific for a dorsalis pedis aneurysm and the diagnosis was further supported by color flow duplex ultrasound which further elucidated thrombus formation within the arterial lumen.…”

“…In a child, the lack of a dorsalis pedis artery may contribute to contracture and inhibit normal trophic growth of the foot. 13 Diabetics may develop peripheral vascular disease and ligating the dorsalis pedis could limit the already potentially diminished blood flow to the foot. 11 The patient in this case report had signs of peripheral vascular disease and limiting the blood flow to the foot may have had implied future implications.…”

“…6 Some authors have emphasized the value of repairing the dorsalis pedis aneurysm to avoid potential future patient morbidity. 11,13 The incidence of thrombosis and embolism has been reported to be as high as 12.5% for infrapopliteal true aneurysms; however there is a low occurrence of rupture. 5 A major consequence of a thrombus or embolism in the dorsalis pedis artery may involve distal ischemia of the toes and subsequent gangrene.…”

Although approximately 10% of the population does not possess a dorsalis pedis artery 1 , some authors postulate as to the potential future complications associated with restricting blood flow to the foot. 11,13 Case PresentationA 52 year old male resident of the Cayman Islands initially presented to the emergency room for a complaint of epigastric and right upper quadrant pain. A consultation was placed with the Podiatry Service regarding a mass on the dorsum of his right foot.During the initial exam, the patient states that the "bump" has been on top of the right foot for more than seven years. The patient relates that when he first noticed the lesion there was sharp, stabbing pain.

Dorsalis Pedis Artery Pseudoaneurysm: An Uncommon Cause of Soft Tissue Mass of the Dorsal Foot in Children

Pseudoaneurysm of the dorsalis pedis artery is an extremely rare entity with only 3 pediatric cases previously presented in the English literature. We describe a new case and discuss the clinical presentation and surgical management. A 6-year-old boy was referred to our clinic because of a pulsatile tumor of the right dorsal foot increasing in size. A focused history found a low grade trauma to the dorsal foot one year previously. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a pseudoaneurysm of the DPA. Resection of the pseudoaneurysm was completed without complications. Pseudoaneurysm of the DPA is a very uncommon cause of soft tissue mass of the dorsal foot. It can appear after low grade trauma. Treatment is surgical.

Anterior tibial artery aneurysms (ATAAs) are relatively rare entities. Most ATAAs are pseudoaneurysms resulting from trauma, infection, or iatrogenic injury. We observed a 33-year-old woman with a huge true ATAA who did not have any potential cause of pseudoaneurysm or risk factors for atherosclerosis or connective tissue disorder.Endovascular isolation by the bi-directional approach was successfully performed, and the ATAA was totally excluded from the afferent blood flow. Distal flow of the anterior tibial artery was preserved, and pulsation of the dorsal pedis artery was also well preserved. Her postoperative course was uneventful, and follow-up ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed the ATAA shrinkage.
