The patients were a 69-year-old man and a 73-year-old man, both of whom presented with localized pain and a pulsatile mass in the femoral area showing rapid enlargement. Ultrasonography and arteriography confirmed the diagnosis and revealed no evidence of aneurysm or occlusive disease in the other arteries. Aneurysmectomy and ligation of the deep femoral artery were performed, and no ischemic symptoms or thrombus developed postoperatively in either patient. Preoperative arteriography is essential to delineate not only the state of the aneurysm, but also that of the distal arterial tree. An emergency operation is also mandatory due to the rapid enlargement of this type of aneurysm, even if rupture occurs.
