ABSTRACT

Femoral artery aneurysms are rare and generally affect elderly patients. They are often diagnosed in combination with aneurysms in other locations, such as peripheral and aortic aneurysms. This case report describes a young patient whose superficial femoral artery (SFA) had a clinical presentation suggestive of a ruptured aneurysm. The patient underwent standard treatment, with aneurysmectomy and interposition of the ipsilateral saphenous vein. A review of the literature confirms the rarity of this case.


Os aneurismas de artéria femoral são raros e ocorrem geralmente em pacientes idosos. Estão frequentemente associados a outros aneurismas, tanto periféricos como de aorta abdominal. O presente relato refere-se a um jovem portador de aneurisma de artéria femoral superficial (AFS), cuja apresentação clínica foi a ruptura. O paciente foi submetido ao tratamento convencional, com ressecção do aneurisma e interposição de veia safena magna ipsilateral. A revisão da literatura corrobora a raridade do caso.
