چکیده

A 53 year old female was referred for computed tomography (CT) angiogram of the abdomen and pelvis to evaluate the deep inferior epigastric artery perforators prior to breast reconstruction surgery. (Figure 1A & 1B). The CT angiogram revealed a beaded appearance of the left external iliac artery. There was no significant stenosis or aneurysm of the artery. The remaining major arteries of the abdomen showed normal appearance. A diagnosis of isolated left external iliac artery fibromuscular dysplasia was made. As the patient was asymptomatic, this incidental finding did not warrant any further management.
