Meet Nadra and her daughter Hayat, sharing their patient experience with Dr. Mohamed Raafat, Consultant Vascular Surgery at Fakeeh University Hospital.
After being diagnosed with a Pseudoaneurysm of the femoral artery, Nadra has fully recovered thanks to Dr. Raafat’s life-saving care.
The femoral artery pseudoaneurysm consists of an outpouching of 1 or 2 vessel wall layers. On the other hand, a true aneurysm involves all 3 layers, including the intima, media, and adventitia. Clinically, it may present with pulsatile hematoma, pain, ecchymosis, or active extravasation.
Watch her inspiring journey to recovery!
