“…2 The detection of such communications seems to be important for distinguishing this disease from other types of arterial occlusive diseases. Various modes of treatment have been performed to correct the popliteal arterial flow, i.e., the aspiration of the cystic contents, 9 a resectional adventitial cystotomy, 6 thrombolytic therapy by urokinase infusion, 10 and a resection of the affected artery and bypass grafting.…”

“…Several investigations have succeeded in preoperatively detecting a communication between the cyst and the knee joint using computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). 1,2 We present a case of cystic disease of the popliteal artery in which a communication between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the knee joint was clearly demonstrated by preoperative MRI. A histologic study compressed the arterial lumen (Fig.…”

Cystic Adventitial Disease of the Popliteal Artery: Elongation into the Media of the Popliteal Artery and Communication with the Knee Joint Capsule: Report of a Case

Cystic disease of the popliteal artery is a rare disorder in which most cases involve the formation of an adventitial cyst that disturbs the popliteal artery blood flow. We present herein the case of a patient presenting with popliteal artery occlusion due to compression by a cyst which formed at the media of the popliteal artery. The onset occurred during a baseball game in which he played catcher. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a communication of the cyst with the adjacent knee joint. This unusual case could provide important clues to help identify the pathogenesis of this disease.

“…21,39–43 This theory gained support, with authors reporting connections between adventitial cysts and adjacent joint capsule. 44–48 Linquette et al 49 proposed “systemic myxomatous degeneration” theory, which failed to get much support, as follow-up in patients with CAD failed to show systemic lesions. 16 More recently, Levien and Benn proposed the “unifying hypothesis” in support of the embryological theory.…”

Cystic adventitial disease (CAD) is a rare vascular disorder, predominantly seen in young healthy men with minimal cardiovascular risk factors. Cystic adventitial disease can affect both arteries and veins. Patients with arterial CAD present with sudden onset or rapidly progressing claudication symptoms, and those with venous CAD present with limb swelling or very rarely deep vein thrombosis. Diagnosis is confirmed with the aid of imaging techniques such as ultrasonography, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance scan. Surgical resection or evacuation of the lesion is usually the preferred approach, with only mixed results reported for percutaneous endovascular techniques.

Adventitial cystic disease is a rare non-atherosclerotic vascular disease. We report a 36-year-old man with right intermittent claudication by adventitial cystic disease. computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an ovoid cystic mass compressing the right popliteal artery and causing severe stenosis of the lumen. Percutaneous aspiration was performed, which improved his symptoms. However, he complained of identical intermittent claudication two weeks later. Radiographic findings revealed that the cystic lesion had progressed rapidly. The cystic lesion was resected and the affected arterial segment was interposed. We consider that conventional surgical intervention remains the favored treatment option in the management of adventitial cystic disease.
