Results: A total 30 cases in the age group of 14 to 57 years (median age of 28 years) were studied.Out of the 30 cases 27 were males and remaining 3 were females.In 25 cases out of 30 (83%), the Femoral Vein was medial to Artery.In 5 cases (17%) the Femoral Vein was Postero-medial to the femoral artery.Among the 5 cases 2 cases had more than 50% overlap.No one had femoral vein completely posterior to femoral artery.In our study the mean Femoral artery size was 7.3 mm (SD-1.4) in Antero-posterior dimension and 7.5 mm (SD -1.4) in horizontal dimension.This has important implications while cannulating the artery for vascular access.Conclusion: We conclude that there is a distinct variation in the anatomical location of the femoral artery and vein.In 17% of individuals the vein is located Postero-medial to the artery, among them one third have significant overlap (>50%) of artery and vein.This may have implicate during the femoral artery access.
