Abstrakt: | Despite the rarity of femoral aneurysm and the plethora of other causes of swelling in and around its anatomic location, the possibility of its existence must always be borne in mind. A rare case of metachronously bilateral femoral aneurysms mimicking soft tissue sarcoma in a young Nigerian man is presented. Caution in the diagnosis of groin masses is hereby re-emphasized.
