title: [Post-stenotic aneurysm following incarceration of the popliteal artery. Description of a case].
abstract: The paper reports a case of post-stenotic aneurysm following an Inshua type II incarceration of the popliteal artery which was treated surgically, and associated with concomitant popliteal venous thrombosis, with complete remission of all clinical symptoms. The paper underlines the rarity of this pathology and the even rarer association with homolateral thrombosis of the popliteal vein. Anomalies which may occur following the incarceration of the popliteal artery are discussed, as are the causes for dilatory degeneration.
