Further comments on the paper

Comments: This report presents the case of a 69-year-old patient with a huge distal left common iliac artery aneurysm, in which the diagnosis was made incidentally during a weekly ultrasound examination. This study holds significance as common iliac artery aneurysm (CIAA) is a very rare entity. The report further states that majority of the abdominal aortic and iliac artery aneurysms are found incidentally by getting images of the abdomen echography or computer tomography for something else.

Q: Would you recommend this manuscript for further publication?
