Adventitial cystic disease of the popliteal artery is a rare condition of debated aetiology. The recommended treatment has been cyst removal with or without replacement of the artery. Recently percutaneous aspiration has been suggested as another method of treatment for this condition. In this case, percutaneous aspiration was performed twice. Surgical intervention was eventually performed because of early cyst recurrence. Our experience suggests that aspiration is a treatment option but, if used, close long-term follow-up is necessary to detect recurrence.
腘动脉外膜囊肿病是一种病因存在争议的罕见病症。推荐的治疗方法是囊肿切除，可连带或不连带动脉置换。最近，有人提出经皮抽吸作为这种病症的另一种治疗方法。在本病例中，进行了两次经皮抽吸。由于囊肿早期复发，最终进行了手术干预。我们的经验表明，抽吸是一种治疗选择，但如果采用这种方法，需要进行密切的长期随访以检测复发情况。
