AbstractThe most common anatomical variation of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) is hypoplasia or aplasia, associated with persistent sciatic artery. Duplication of SFA remains uncommon. We report a case of SFA duplication discovered on an angiogram performed for critical limb ischemia, in an 80-year-old man.Copyright (c) 2010 Annals of Vascular Surgery Inc.
