We experienced a surgically treated case of chronic contained rupture of a common iliac artery aneurysm. A large number of cases of chronic contained ruptures of the abdominal aorta have been reported; however, that of the common iliac artery is very rare. A 66-year-old man was injured in a bicycle accident. Three months later, the patient felt a dull abdominal pain and noticed a tumor in the left lower abdomen. On presenting computed tomography (CT) scan revealed an aneurysm of the left common iliac artery. After further examinations, a contained rupture of the left common iliac artery aneurysm was diagnosed. At operation, the main aneurysm, 7.5×6.5cm in size, was seen in the left common iliac artery, extending to the right common iliac artery and the infrarenal abdominal aorta. A 5.0×3.0cm tear, was found oil the posterior wall of the left common iliac aneurysm, surrounded by a huge hematoma. The aneurysm was resected and the abdominal aorta and the common iliac arteries were replaced with a Bard Albumin-coated DeBakey vascular bifurcated graft (16×8mm). The postoperative course was uneventful.
