Abstract
This case describes the surgical repair of profunda femoris artery aneurysm in a patient with a history of metasynchronous superficial femoral artery aneurysm. It demonstrates the value of screening for arterial aneurysms in patients presenting with isolated peripheral arterial aneurysms. We detail open surgical approach of aneurysm resection and subsequent revascularization with interposition graft. We also review the literature for this condition and discuss other approaches to this rare finding. The patient in this case report has consented to publication of this article.
