Summary: Aneurysms of the popliteal vein are rare, but with potential to cause serious thromboembolic complications, such as pulmonary embolism. A large majority are detected in the context of thromboembolic disease, only a few are found incidentally or because of other type symptomatology. Symptomatic aneurysms of the popliteal vein should be treated surgically, because of the high risk of recurrent pulmonary embolism, even in hypocoagulated patients. The authors describe the case of a patient with saccular aneurysm of the left popliteal vein, causing compressive local symptoms and with end luminal thrombus, which was successfully surgically corrected.

A grande maioria são detectados no contexto da doença tromboembólica, apenas alguns são detectados incidentalmente ou por outro tipo de sintomatologia. Os aneurismas sintomáticos da veia poplítea deverão ser tratados cirurgicamente, devido ao alto risco de recorrência de embolia pulmonar, mesmo em doentes hipocoagulados. Os autores descrevem o caso de um doente com aneurisma sacular da veia poplítea esquerda, causando sintomas compressivos locais e com trombo endoluminal, que foi corrigido cirurgicamente com sucesso.Sociedade Portuguesa de Angiologia e Cirurgia Vascular2017-06-03T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.48750/acv.60oai:ojs.acvjournal.com:article/60Angiologia e Cirurgia Vascular; Vol. 13 No. 1 (2017): March; 50-52Angiologia e Cirurgia Vascular; Vol. 13 N.º 1 (2017): Março; 50-522183-00961646-706Xreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAPenghttp://acvjournal.com/index.php/acv/article/view/60https://doi.org/10.48750/acv.60http://acvjournal.com/index.php/acv/article/view/60/42Copyright (c) 2017 Angiologia e Cirurgia Vascularinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMachado, LuísVilaça, IsabelMansilha, ArmandoTeixeira, José2022-05-23T15:10:00Zoai:ojs.acvjournal.com:article/60Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T10:00:03.581082Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
