If anyone here has experience with this. How long after any onset of symptoms did you have it checked out. And does it always require surgery?

Hello @maltita83, Welcome to Connect. @interest and @bfgjeep also mentioned having a popliteal artery aneurysm in another discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/popliteal-arterial-aneurysms/ and may also have information to share with you.

According to what Mayo Clinic says the treatment of popliteal artery aneurysm depends on the size of the aneurysm, the symptoms and your age and overall health - https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/popliteal-artery-aneurysm/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20528724.

Have you been diagnosed with a popliteal artery aneurysm?
