Abstract:
The cystic adventitial disease of the popliteal artery is an uncommon cause of intermittent claudication in young patients. Several treatment options are available, oriented to either drainage of the cyst and/or arterial reconstruction. Endovascular techniques have been exceptionally used to treat this condition, with mixed results. We report 2 young claudicants treated with primary stenting with continuous 4- and 10-year symptomatic relief and arterial patency.
