Abstract
Pseudoaneurysms are relatively common entities encountered in clinical practice; however, pseudoaneurysms of the profunda femoris artery are rarely reported in literature. Due to the nonspecific presentation of pseudoaneurysms, diagnosis can be difficult and delayed. We report a case of a 14-year-old athlete diagnosed with spontaneous pseudoaneurysm of profunda femoris artery following a sports injury. Presentation, diagnostic workup, treatment, and complications are described.
