A 75 years-old man presented with the edema and cyanosis of the right lower extremity. A lower limb ultrasound and Enhanced CT revealed the 31 mm right popliteal artery aneurysm with thrombus which caused blue tow syndrome. Endovascular repair with insertion of a stent graft Gore VIABAHN was performed. Angiography was performed with and without the knee bent, and an appropriate landing zone was confirmed to select the device size. No complication was observed even after operation, and the 9-month follow-up Enhanced CT showed the aneurysm well-thrombosed and no endoleak.
