Huge anastomotic femoral pseudoaneurysm following aorto-bifemoral bypass.

There has been recent concern that the number of patients at risk of femoral artery false aneurysms may be increasing, due to an increase in the number of cardiac and vascular radiological interventional procedures performed each year. Rarely, such pseudoaneurysms can develop around the anastomotic site of a femoral bypass graft. The present report describes the unusual presentation of a huge femoral pseudoaneurysm in a 70-year-old male patient who had an aorto-bifemoral bypass in the past.
