A 67-year-old man was injured his right lower extremity by cultivator. Emergent operation was performed and operative finding revealed his right popliteal artery and vein were completely resected. Injured popliteal artery and vein were repaired by end-to-end anastomosis, respectively. Seven months later, he had numbness of right foot sole and swelling of right lower thigh. The contrast enhanced computed tomography showed 4.5 cm saccular aneurysm of right popliteal artery. Surgical treatment was performed for popliteal pseudoaneurysm by aneurysmectomy and autologous graft replacement via posterior approach. The graft was patent with no additional intervention at 4.1 years after operation.
