Atherosclerotic popliteal aneurysm

Background A popliteal artery aneurysm (PAA) has been described as a ‘sinister harbinger of sudden catastrophe’. This review seeks to provide data regarding the epidemiological aspects, natural history, clinical presentation and results of treatment to help clinicians make appropriate decisions.
