Bilateral aneurysm of dacron graft following aorto-femoral graft operation. A case report.

: A case of bilateral aneurysmatic widening of the Dacron graft after aorto-femoral bypass is described. The probable cause of an aneurysm in Dacron graft without any involvement of the host vessels may be the rupture of the Dacron fibres due to fatigue of the material. Furthermore, a contributory cause of aneurysm in our case may be the fact that both anastomoses were performed at nearly right angles causing turbulence.
