Successful treatment of a large profunda femoris artery aneurysm and associated pseudoaneurysm using endovascular stenting.

Abstract

Profunda femoris artery aneurysms are a rare form of peripheral arterial aneurysm. In this report, we present the case of an 83-year-old lady who was found to have a 65mm aneurysm arising from the proximal left profunda femoris artery and associated pseudoaneurysm. Successful treatment was achieved using an endovascular approach in which two stents were deployed.
