Abstract

A 65-year-old woman presented to our institution with 4 months of severe pain on the plantar aspect of her foot. She had chronic foot pain secondary to Morton's neuroma and had recently undergone neurectomy. She was found to have a large pseudoaneurysm on the plantar aspect of her foot. She was taken to the operating room for an open repair from a plantar approach. We obtained the patient's consent to publish this case.
