Resumen
FERRER, Miguel et al. Different scenarios of ruptured popliteal aneurysms. Angiología [online]. 2023, vol.75, n.6, pp.391-394. Epub 29-Ene-2024. ISSN 1695-2987. https://dx.doi.org/10.20960/angiologia.00537.
Introduction:
popliteal aneurysm (PA) is a rare disease, mostly asymptomatic, being rupture an exceptional complication. This usually occurs in elder and severely comorbid patients.
Case reports:
we present three different cases of ruptured popliteal aneurysms, all of them with different clinical presentations as well as different treatments. Our objective is to show different approaches and presentations for a rare complication of a rare disease.
Discussion:
RPA is a rare complication, and it is uncommon to see more than one case reported. Versatility in handling different approaches is paramount. The high mortality reflects the typical morbidity in these patients.
