Abstract

Aneurysms of the anterior tibial artery are rare. We will describe a case of a woman with an asymptomatic true aneurysm of the anterior tibial artery. The patient presented with a pulsatile mass in the lateral face of the distal portion of the left leg, and both ultrasound examination and computed tomography angiography scan showed a giant aneurysm of the anterior tibial artery. We chose open treatment.
