Abstract
Popliteal venous aneurisms (PVA) are rare. Sometimes revealed by a thromboembolic complication, a deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and/or a pulmonary embolism (PE), they can be life-threatening. They are frequently diagnosed fortuitously during a systematic ultrasound examination for the assessment of chronic superficial venous insufficiency (CSVI). The aim of this study was to report the modes of discovery, the anatomical criteria, the methods of management, and the immediate and mid-term postoperative results in terms of patency or thromboembolic recurrence.
