Furthermore, CT detected a right PFAA measuring 25 x 22 mm, without clinical symptoms, and the bilateral common femoral arteries (CFAs) showed aneurysmal changes (Figure 1).

(a) Preoperative computed tomography exhibited a 22 mm right profunda femoris artery aneurysm with an intraluminal thrombus. (b) Postoperative computed tomography revealed a patent replaced prosthetic graft (white arrow).

CT after open surgical repair of AAA and bilateral common iliac artery aneurysms and an assessment of an untreated thoracic artery aneurysm measuring 40 mm in size. CT exhibited a PFAA measuring 25 x 22 mm on the right side of the thigh (Figure 2(a)). The aneurysm was successfully resected under general anesthesia with revascularization from the proximal to the distal part of the PFA using an 8 mm prosthesis (Figure 2(b)).

(a) The intraoperative findings showed the controlled profunda femoris artery (black arrow) and superficial femoral artery (white arrow), and (b) the aneurysmectomy was performed with graft interposition (black arrow). The patient's head was to the right.

PFAA were well controlled; the aneurysmectomy was successfully performed with the interposed 8 mm prosthetic graft placed between the proximal and distal PFA (Figure 3). Postoperative course was uneventful, without lower limb ischemia.

Computed tomography showed a 78 x 86 mm left profunda femoris artery (PFA) (a), which extended to the distal part of the left PFA (white arrow) (b).
