Early complications and long-term outcome after open surgical treatment of popliteal artery aneurysms: Is exclusion with saphenous vein bypass still the gold standard?

Abstract: Acute presentation of PAA continues to carry high mortality and cardiac morbidity; although preoperative thrombolysis appears to improve results, the 8% early and 15% late amputation rates remain ominous. Early elective repair is recommended because these patients had no surgical mortality, a low rate of complications, and asymptomatic patients had no limb loss at 5 years. GSV and endoaneurysmorrhaphy continues to be the gold standard for open repair of PAA.
