Abstract

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 used in exceptional cases to treat this condition, mostly balloon angioplasty and only 2 cases of stenting, with mixed to poor results. We report the case of a 36-year-old female patient with claudication who was treated with primary stenting with long-term symptomatic relief and arterial patency.
