Abstract

Isolated aneurysms of the internal iliac artery are rare and often asymptomatic. They are frequently diagnosed as a result of complications such as rupture. The authors describe in detail two cases of ruptured aneurysms of the internal iliac artery treated by emergency surgery with no perioperative mortality or morbidity.
