Abstract
True aneurysm of the dorsal artery of the foot is extremely rare, and its clinical manifestations are little known. A case of a true dorsalis pedis artery aneurysm in a 51-year-old man, with no history of local trauma or injury on his foot, is presented. Clinical examination and ultrasonic imaging confirmed the aneurysm. Dorsalis pedis artery aneurysm after this had been exposed, the proximal and distal stumps of the dorsal artery of the foot were isolated and ligated, and the aneurysm was resected.Entities:
