title: [Combined aneurysm of the popliteal artery and the tibiofibular trunk].
abstract: Arterial aneurysms of the infrapopliteal vessels are rare. The majority are false aneurysms caused by trauma. Presenting symptoms are calf mass and distal ischemia. Asymptomatic lesions may be found incidentally during arteriography. On the basis of a case report the procedure of surgical treatment concerning these aneurysms is described.
