ABSTRACT
The case report is of a 30-year male patient who had a fracture shaft of femur and after open reduction and internal fixation developed swelling which was painful and was present on the medial aspect of the thigh. It was decided to do an angiogram as the swelling was expansile and confirmed superficial femoral artery pseudo aneurysm and the reason was thought to be over penetration of the bit of the drill while doing the surgery for shaft of femur fracture. Treatment decided by the multidisciplinary team was to remove the condylar buttress plate, resection of the aneurysm and repair of the aneurysm with inter-positional graft
