Endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm combined with aneurysmectomy and interposition bypass for left common femoral artery aneurysm.

Femoral artery aneurysms (FAAs) can occur in some patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. There is a lack of natural history studies in the published literature. Guidelines recommend FAA repair when symptomatic or larger than 2.5 cm in diameter to prevent aneurysm-related complications. The presence of intraluminal thrombus may also be a risk factor for these complications as well. We present a case of a male in his 70s who underwent simultaneous endovascular aortic repair and repair of his left FAA with no complications after surgery. We propose that these patients may benefit from combined repair by performing these procedures together.
