RESUMO

El aneurisma de la arteria poplítea es el principal aneurisma periférico y el segundo en frecuencia después del aneurisma de la aorta abdominal. Su incidencia se desconoce. Posee un patrón característico de presentación que corresponde a personas del sexo masculinos, mayores de 65 años, con múltiples comorbilidades, donde la hipertensión arterial representa la más frecuente. La definición de aneurisma corresponde a una dilatación del 50 por ciento del diámetro del vaso, en el caso de la arteria poplítea, mayor de 1,5 cm. El 50 por ciento de los aneurismas poplíteos resulta asintomático, el resto presenta síntomas isquémicos (trombosis, embolismos periféricos), compresivos y la ruptura. El tratamiento es quirúrgico: convencional (vías medial-posterior) y endovascular. El objetivo del artículo fue presentar este caso por la infrecuencia del aneurisma de la arteria poplítea unilateral. Se trata de un paciente masculino de 62 años, con aumento de volumen localizado a nivel de la fosa poplítea izquierda con latido y expansión a la palpación, diámetro transversal aproximado de 3 cm y longitudinal de 4 cm, presencia de soplo sistólico a la auscultación con diagnóstico ecográfico y arteriográfico de aneurisma de la arteria poplítea izquierda. La evolución del paciente fue satisfactoria y se mantiene bajo seguimiento médico para evaluar la permeabilidad del injerto sintético(AU)


Popliteal artery aneurysm is the main peripheral aneurysm and the second in frequency after abdominal aortic aneurysm. Its incidence is unknown. It has a characteristic presentation pattern that corresponds to male people, over 65 years of age, with multiple comorbidities, where arterial hypertension represents the most frequent. The definition of aneurysm corresponds to a dilation of 50 percent of the diameter of the vessel, in the case of the popliteal artery, greater than 1.5 cm. 50 percent of popliteal aneurysms are asymptomatic, the rest have ischemic symptoms (thrombosis, peripheral embolisms), compression and rupture. Treatment is surgical: conventional (medial-posterior pathways) and endovascular. The objective of the article was to present this case due to the infrequency of the unilateral popliteal artery aneurysm. This is a 62-year-old male patient, with localized volume increase at the level of the left popliteal fossa with heartbeat and expansion on palpation, approximate transverse diameter of 3 cm and longitudinal diameter of 4 cm, presence of systolic murmur at auscultation with ultrasound and arteriographic diagnosis of aneurysm of the left popliteal artery. The patient's evolution was satisfactory and he remains under medical follow-up to evaluate the permeability of the synthetic graft(AU)

RESUMO

Objective To present and summarize the data concerning the diagnosis and treatment of popliteal aneurysm in our hospital. Methods The data of popliteal aneurysm in our hospital from 1975 to 2004 were reviewed and analyzed. Eleven patients with 11 diseased limbs were treated, including 8 males and 3 females, age from 21 years to 64 years 〔(48.54?13.66) years〕. The combined diseases include syphilis, rheumatic heart disease and chronic obstructire pulmonary disease etc. Ten patients received operations, including endoaneurysmorrhaphy (n=4) and graft bypass after aneurysmal resection (n=6), through posterior approach (n=7) or medial approach (n=3). One patient, combined with advanced syphilis and heart failure, received conservative treatment because of his poor general condition. Results The common clinical manifestations included popliteal pulsating mass, claudication, difficulty in extension of the knee, pain etc. Acute ischemia occurred in 3 limbs. The diameter of popliteal aneurysms varied from 4-13 cm 〔(6.73?2.69) cm〕. There were 3 (27.3) cases of ruptured aneurysms whose diameters were 7 cm, 7 cm and 11 cm respectively. Special examinations included arteriography and Doppler sonography. Pathological results of these patients were pseudoaneurysm (n=3), syphilitic aneurysm (n=3) and atherosclerotic aneurysm (n=4). Two patients were not followed up, and postoperative follow up of the other 8 patients ranged from 18 months to 30 years. In the group of endoaneurysmorrhaphy, postoperative gangrene of the affected limb occurred in one patient, and above-knee amputation was performed. One patient suffered from intermittent claudication in the group of endoaneurysmorrhaphy and of graft bypass respectively. No manifestations of limb ischemia were found in the other 5 patients during the time of follow up. Conclusion General utilization of Doppler sonography in screening high risk patients might be helpful to detect popliteal aneurysm. For symptomatic popliteal aneurysm or asymptomatic popliteal aneurysm with diameter larger than 3 cm, operation is indicated. Asymptomatic popliteal aneurysms no more than 3 cm in diameter could be monitored with care.

RESUMO

The rupture of a popliteal artery aneurysm is very rare, and can lead to serious complications if untreated. Any reports of a huge pseudoaneurysm, following rupture of the popliteal artery aneurysm could not be found in a review of the literature. A pulsatile huge mass leading to a deep venous thrombosis, was observed in a 74 years old male patient who for 2 months had had a progressively swollen and painful left leg. On angiographic evaluation, the mass was found to be a pseudoaneurysm originating from a ruptured true aneurysm of the popliteal artery. There was also a small true aneurysm in the contralateral extremity at the same localization. Both the false, and true aneurysms were resected surgically and arterial continuity was established with a synthetic polytetrafluoroethylene graft.
