Abstract
Among complications after grafting of an artificial vessel, false aneurysm due to the teared artificial vessel is extremely rare. We experienced such a rare case in a 78-year-old man. The patient was found to have multiple false aneurysms on the graft itself 7 years and one month after right axillary-femoral artery bypass operation for arteriosclerosis obliterans, by using Cooley double velour knitted Dacron. The graft was removed and replaced with EXS Dacron graft. The extirpated specimen was closely examined. In addition, a review of the literature was made of false aneurysms due to teared graft.
