Unilateral lower limb oedema: A Hidden Pseudoaneurysm.

Introduction: We present a patient with a rare vascular emergency of mycotic profunda femoris artery pseudoaneurysm presented as an expanding hematoma.

Presentation Of Case: The patient presented with acute onset complaints of severe pain and swelling of the left thigh, mimicking DVT, and was inevitable for limb loss in the absence of timely intervention.

Discussion: The pseudoaneurysm being located in the mid profunda femoris artery was located deep in the intra-muscular plane with adjacent hematoma precluding an open surgical approach.

Upper GI endoscopy revealed external compression of the lower oesophagus-near total luminal obstruction with impending rupture of the aortic aneurysm.
