Abstract
Adventitial cystic disease is a rare disorder characterized by mucin-containing cysts of the adventitial tissue. The condition has a predilection for the popliteal artery. Men are predominantly affected, usually around the fourth decade. We report of a case of recurrent adventitial cystic disease and the possibilities of modern cross-sectional imaging. In particular we discuss the advantages of magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance angiography for the diagnosis of this condition. Furthermore, the etiology and the possibilities of surgical treatment are illustrated.
