Subject:   traceout oddity - can anyone explain this loop?

Here is the response of running traceroute to a router at my workplace, 
notice the loop it was in starting at hop 13.  I set the ttl up higher and 
let it run, finally killed it at 75 hops, stuck in that loop. Any idea what 
this loop means? Is it something I should be concerned about? (I think 
probably so, but what to do about it?)
