Abstract
This paper describes the case of an 8-year-old boy with fracture of distal part of tibia and fibula, with signs of acute extremity ischemia and injury of infrapopliteal arteries demonstrated by angiography. After fixation of the fracture and reconstruction of the artery, the following control angiographic and Doppler ultrasound examination demonstrated free passage through the treated artery.
The authors also present a review of usual angiographic findings in arterial injuries and possibilities of subsequent therapeutic procedures.
