Common femoral artery aneurysm repair using bifurcated graft.

Common femoral artery aneurysms are rare, and surgical repair is indicated if they are significantly large, or if they are symptomatic (thrombosis causing limb ischaemia and compression of surrounding structures). Synthetic grafts are preferred, especially in cases involving large aneurysms, or the bifurcation of the common femoral artery. We present a case of bilateral common femoral artery aneurysms extending into the bifurcation repaired using a synthetic graft which is traditionally used for an axillobifemoral bypass.
