Abstract
Popliteal artery aneurysms are relatively common among all peripheral aneurysms. Neverthelessdevelopment of entrapment neuropathy or critical limb ischemia due to a popliteal aneurysm isextremely rare. Peripheral nerves such as tibial and common peroneal nerves are more frequentlyexposed to chronic compression due to settlement with a narrow anatomic volume andneighborhood with a joint.
