Isolated external iliac artery aneurysms are a very rare occurrence. We present the case of a patient with a very large symptomatic isolated external iliac artery aneurysm found incidentally on imaging for other reasons. Due to his compressive symptoms, he underwent uncomplicated open repair of his aneurysm. We also discuss the etiology and management options for this rare entity.
