The rupture of aneurysm of the deep femoral artery is considered rare. The patient was an 81-year-old man. He was admitted to our hospital because of a swelling and pain in the right lower limb. A computed tomography showed a ruptured deep femoral artery aneurysm, measuring 20 mm. Because of the poor distal vascularity of the deep femoral artery, we performed a resection of the deep femoral artery aneurysm without revascularization of the deep femoral artery. The patient was discharged from the hospital on the 14th day after surgery without complications of lower limb ischemia.
