Abstract
Pseudoaneurysms of the superficial femoral artery are uncommon and typically iatrogenic. The majority of publications on this topic that have been published in English literature are case reports. It is unclear how often arterial pseudoaneurysms (APAs) caused by limb trauma occur, and their treatment is not standardised. A review of the literature usually follows the presentation of a case report, but no recent update with reliable data has been published. In this case study, a 24-year-old patient who had a piece of iron lodged in the middle third of his thigh and a pulsatile mass that revealed a pseudoaneurysm of the superficial femoral artery is described. The patient underwent an emergency operation without employing a venous graft. We directly sutured the arterial lesion, with positive outcomes.
