Aneurysm of lateral circumflex femoral artery in association with multiple atherosclerotic aneurysms.
Femoral aneurysms are uncommon and are frequently associated with other aneurysms, particularly those of the aorta and popliteal arteries. Other peripheral aneurysms are even more rare. As far as we are aware, only one aneurysm of the lateral circumflex artery has been previously described. We describe such an aneurysm in association with a common femoral aneurysm on the same side, an abdominal aortic aneurysm and an iliac aneurysm on the contralateral side.
