Abstract: We present a case of a popliteal artery aneurysm in a 55 years old male, who presented with pain and a pulsatile mass in the right popliteal fossa. Angiography as well as Angio-CT examination revealed a popliteal artery aneurysm. We performed a femoro-distal popliteal by-pass with the ligation of the aneurysmal arterial segment. The popliteal vein was found thrombosed and the long saphenous vein was therefore spared.
Keywords: popliteal aneurysm, ruptured arterial aneurysm, peripheral aneurysmal disease, by-pass
