description BACKGROUND: A chronic iliac arterial pseudoaneurysm caused by blunt trauma is very rare. CASE PRESENTATION: The patient had gunshot wound in the right thigh and blunt trauma 40 years earlier. An abdominal computed tomography revealed the presence of a right iliac arterial pseudoaneurysm, and we successfully treated the pseudoaneurysm by resection and in situ reconstruction with a bifurcated vascular prosthesis. CONCLUSIONS: We herein present a rare case of a pseudoaneurysm of the right iliac artery diagnosed decades after blunt trauma.
