ABSTRACT
We report a 71 years old male with high blood pressure. During the postoperative follow up after a prostatectomy for a benign prostate hyperplasia, a pulsatile mass was palpated in the left inguinal region. A chest, abdomen and lower limb AngioTC, disclosed a unique sacular aneurysm in the left common femoral artery. The patient was subjected to a surgical excision of the aneurysm, with a favorable postoperative evolution.
