Endovascular Treatment of a Popliteal Artery Aneurysm Via Transpedal Approach: A Case Report.

Popliteal artery aneurysm (PAA) has been increasingly treated with endovascular intervention in recent years. However, whether transpedal access can be utilized to treat PAA has not been widely reported. We report a case of successful treatment of a PAA with a covered stent via retrograde transpedal approach in an 80-year male with prohibitive surgical risk who initially failed antegrade approach. This case demonstrates the feasibility of treating PAA via a retrograde transpedal access in selected patients.
