  28. Slide 28: Treatment Options

    Treatment Options • Elective Therapy: • Ligation and bypass with GSV • Stent Graft(limited long term data) • Thrombosis with ischemia • Lysis then ligation and bypass • Below knee thrombectomy, ligation and bypass • Adjuncts: • Fasciotomy • Always check opposite popliteal artery

  29. Slide 29: Popliteal Artery Aneurysm

    Popliteal Artery Aneurysm • Most common peripheral arterial aneurysms • Diameter > 2cm or 1.5 x normal • 50% bilateral • 70% have aortic aneurysms • Complication: thrombosis, embolization, rupture

  30. Slide 30: Popliteal Artery Aneurysm

    Popliteal Artery Aneurysm • Treatment is indicated for all popliteal aneurysms • Treatment options • Open surgery: medial vs posterior approach • Endovascular

  31. Slide 31: Fate of excluded popliteal artery aneurysms

    Popliteal Artery Aneurysm ♦Fate of excluded popliteal artery aneurysms – Ebaugh, JVS, 2003 (Univ. Washington) – 57 aneurysms for ligation and exclusion – 48% decrease in size, 20% unchanged, 32% increase in size – ? Analogous to type II endoleak or endotension

  32. Slide 32: Endovascular intervention

    Popliteal Artery Aneurysm ♦Endovascular intervention – Tielliu et al, J Endovasc Ther, 2003 (Netherlands) – 23 aneurysms treated w/ Hemobahn grafts – Technical success 100% – 74% patency rate at 15 months
