Common Femoral Artery Aneurysm: A Rare Manifestation of Immunoglobulin G4-Related Disease.

Abstract

We present a case of a common femoral artery aneurysm as an extremely rare manifestation of immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD). A 79-year-old male, who underwent emergency abdominal aortic aneurysm repair at age 60 due to rupture, developed enlarging aneurysms of the right internal iliac artery, the right common femoral artery, and the left common femoral artery. Consequently, the right iliac artery was replaced with a graft extending to the right deep femoral artery, also reconstructing the right internal iliac artery. Histopathological examination of the resected common femoral artery wall confirmed the diagnosis of IgG4-RD.
