| Abstract |
Despite advances in endovascular treatments, femoropopliteal bypass is still the best option for the treatment of lower-extremity occlusive artery disease. Omniflow II biosynthetic vascular grafts are often chosen as bypass grafts when autologous vein grafting is not possible. A negative feature of this graft is the tendency towards late biodegeneration with possible formation of graft aneurysms. In this case report, we present a thrombosed non-anastomotic biosynthetic graft aneurysm, which caused only a pulsatile mass in the inguinal region, in a 62-year-old male patient who had undergone a femoropopliteal bypass operation three years earlier. Aneurysm formation in vascular grafts is multifactorial and can cause life-threatening consequences. Therefore, all patients with biosynthetic vascular grafts should remain under lifetime surveillance with duplex ultrasound for aneurysmal graft degeneration and graft thrombosis. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 January 2022.
All research outputs
#7,363,646
of 25,392,582 outputs
Outputs from Cardiovascular journal of Africa
#55
of 272 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#124,352
of 392,407 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cardiovascular journal of Africa
#1
of 11 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,392,582 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 272 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.6. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 392,407 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 11 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its contemporaries.
