Abstract

The incidence of isolated iliac artery aneurysm is rare. We report a 78-year-old male with isolated bilateral common iliac artery and internal iliac aneurysm. Computerized tomography angiogram of the aorta revealed partially thrombosed aneurysms involving bilateral common iliac and internal arteries with mass effect. The infrarenal abdominal aorta is tortuous and ectatic. The clinical presentation and management are discussed.
