Abstract

Most iliac artery aneurysms occur in association with aortic aneurysms. Isolated aneurysms of the iliac arteries are uncommon, and those of the external iliac arteries are even more rare. In the present report, we have presented the case of a bilateral external iliac artery aneurysm in a young man.

Keywords: Aneurysms; External iliac artery; Solitary iliac artery aneurysms.
