Ruptured aneurysm of the superficial femoral artery.

Femoral arterial aneurysms are rare, but their existence must be considered in cases of acute ischaemia of the leg or the occurrence of a pulsating swelling in the groin. Surgical intervention is mandatory, and venous autografts should be preferred to synthetic grafts. With adequate therapy, the prognosis is favourable, but the coexistence of multiple aneurysms should always be borne in mind. A successfully treated case of ruptured femoral aneurysm, combined with abdominal aortic aneurysm, is reported.
