Popliteal artery pseudoaneurysm treated with covered stent placement and thrombolysis: a case report

Pseudoaneurysms of the popliteal artery are a rare clinical entity, accounting for <4% of all popliteal aneurysms. Accurate diagnosis and effective intervention is required to prevent potentially limb-threatening complications. We present the case of a 37-year-old man with acute limb ischaemia du...

description Pseudoaneurysms of the popliteal artery are a rare clinical entity, accounting for <4% of all popliteal aneurysms. Accurate diagnosis and effective intervention is required to prevent potentially limb-threatening complications. We present the case of a 37-year-old man with acute limb ischaemia due to distal calf vessel thrombosis secondary to a popliteal pseudoaneurysm that was managed with covered stent placement and thrombolysis.
