Abstract
This is a case of successful limb salvage using Viabahn stent grafts in a 47-year-old male with bilateral type III open femur fractures and traumatic disruption of the superficial femoral and popliteal arteries following a crush injury. Both femoral arteries were treated with endovascular repair using a total of four Viabahn endoprostheses (two per side), which restored lower extremity perfusion and avoided the need for open bypass. Open bypass was not feasible due to extensive venous trauma rendering the veins unsuitable for conduit harvest; Viabahn stents provided the only viable option for limb salvage. The patient recovered distal motor and sensory function with sustained graft patency at follow-up. This case highlights the potential role of Viabahn stent grafts as a minimally invasive alternative to autologous vein grafts for vascular trauma repair in complex, high-acuity settings.
