Abstract
Common or external iliac artery injury due to blunt trauma is unusual without an associated pelvic fracture.Here we report on a 62 years old man that sustained left external iliac artery thrombosis due to blunt trauma following fall from motorbike.There was no immediate circulatory compromise.Contrasted CT of abdomen revealed an associated left lower abdominal wall traumatic hernia.The iliac artery was intervened with an endovascular stent to restore luminal flow and the hernia was repaired electively.The entire clinical course and management dilemma are described in this article.
