    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Vascular Medicine

    Background:

    • Popliteal aneurysms are a significant cause of limb-threatening ischemia.
    • Undiagnosed popliteal aneurysms can lead to severe complications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the limb-threatening potential of popliteal aneurysms.
    • To advocate for proactive screening and management of popliteal aneurysms.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of patients with popliteal aneurysms.
    • Analysis of clinical outcomes and complications.

    Main Results:

    • Eighty-six popliteal aneurysms were identified in 52 patients.
    • These aneurysms presented as limb-threatening conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • Popliteal aneurysms require vigilant surveillance.
    • Elective surgical replacement is advised upon diagnosis to prevent critical limb ischemia.
