Aneurysms of the foot arteries are uncommon but can lead to devastating complications such as acute foot ischemia or arterial rupture if left untreated. In this case series, we present four cases of aneurysms of the foot: one true dorsalis pedis artery aneurysm and three cases of post-traumatic plantar artery pseudoaneurysms with arteriovenous fistulas. All four patients were successfully managed with surgical excision of the aneurysm with or without arteriovenous fistulas ligation. Our case series is followed by discussion on the etiology, clinical presentation and management strategy of patients with aneurysms of the foot arteries.

A true dorsalis pedis artery aneurysm is a very rare find. This is a case presentation of a patient with an asymptomatic non-traumatic dorsalis pedis artery aneurysm. A 49-year-old man was referred to the vascular lab for evaluation of an asymptomatic non-traumatic pulsatile lump on the dorsal aspect of his left foot. The patient reported that the lump had been present for at least 4 years. Color flow duplex ultrasound was used to evaluate the lump. Color flow duplex ultrasound examination of the lump demonstrated a dilatation of the dorsalis pedis artery, measuring approximately 1.05 cm by 1.35 cm. Mural thrombus is noted in gray scale image. Normal Doppler flow was noted in the dorsalis pedis artery, proximal, and distal to the aneurysm. The patient was referred to a vascular surgeon. Subsequently, he underwent a lower extremity arteriogram confirming the diagnosis of a dorsalis pedis artery aneurysm, with good distal blood flow to the toes. The patient underwent resection of the dorsalis pedis artery aneurysm. Reverse great saphenous vein was used as an interposition graft. Follow-up graft scans demonstrated good flow in the graft and in the native artery, distal to the graft. True dorsalis pedis artery aneurysms are very rare finding. When left untreated, the patient is at risk for embolization to the digits. Color flow Doppler is a very useful tool in diagnosing and assessing these aneurysms.

Aneurysm of the pedal arteries is uncommon. Dorsalis pedis aneurysms are a clinically rare phenomenon. We present a case of traumatic fusiform aneurysm of the dorsalis pedis artery in an otherwise well 53-year-old Caucasian man. Initial history was suggestive of micro-embolic disease to the medial toes of the left foot and on examination pulses were palpable throughout the lower limbs with a strong, palpable dorasalis pedis pulse. Ankle brachial pressure indexes were normal but reduced toe pressures to the left toes. Colour flow duplex imaging revealed aneurysmal dilation, involving all layers of artery wall, with irregular intraluminal thrombus across a 16-mm segment. Subsequent CTA run-off revealed all vessels were patent in the left lower limb. Due to concerns over further embolisation, our patient underwent successful ligation of the his dorsalis pedis. He had an uneventful post-operative recovery.
