I had a 5 cm aneurysm in my popliteal artery. And an adjacent blood clot. They placed a stent once they cleared the blood clot, but then found one in my other leg as well. It was small at first, but then grew large enough to be stented as well. At this point, I only take low-dose aspirin and have regular ultrasounds.

Hi @mevans99 . Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I am glad you are here.

How long have you been dealing with aneurysm and blood clots? Do they cause you discomfort or pain?
