Abstract

Aneurysms are unusual in pediatric population. They are generally caused by infections, arteritis, collagen vascular diseases, vascular malformations and trauma. Idiopathic aneurysms in children are very rare and most reported cases concern multiple localizations. The Iliac localization remains exceptional especially the bilateral form. We present a case of 6-year-old child who has been admitted to the emergency department with complaints of abdominal pain. The diagnosis of an unruptured and idiopathic bilateral aneurysm of common iliac arteries was made.
