Abstract
Pseudoaneurysm occurs almost exclusively as a complication of penetrating vascular injury, typically by iatrogenic intervention or penetrating trauma. Isolated pseudoaneurysms in the geniculate arterial system are extremely rare but have occurred in the postsurgical setting ( 1 Saini P. Meena S. Malhotra R. Gamanagatti S. Kumar V. Jain V.
