“…The clinical evaluation and workup of a patient with EDS who presents with a painful lower extremity mass in the absence of trauma or clinical evidence of blood loss can be difficult. However, a degree of suspicion is warranted as spontaneous lower extremity pseudoaneurysm has been reported in the literature [3]. Vascular events stemming from underlying EDS are well-known across several types, though typically much more serious and more common when associated with type IV.…”

Spontaneous femoral artery pseudoaneurysm in a young person with no comorbidity is a rare occurrence. A 30 years old gentleman presented to our hospital with complaints of painful swelling of spontaneous onset in the right inguinal region for 15 days. He had undergone incision and drainage of the contents of the swelling five days back but he suffered from a recurrence of the painful right inguinal swelling and persistent bleeding from the incision site for four days. Computed tomography showed a pseudoaneurysm of the right common femoral artery. It was treated surgically by emergency exploration, hematoma evacuation, removal of pseudoaneurysm, and repair of the defect in the right common femoral artery. In this case, we were fortunate that inadvertent incision of the pseudoaneurysm didn’t result in a massive haemorrhage. This serves as a reminder that the possibility of a femoral artery pseudoaneurysm should be considered when evaluating a swelling of the inguinal region.
