The guidelines on popliteal artery aneurysms (PAAs) are evidence-based recommendations for the treatment of patients, focusing on screening, intervention indications, repair strategy choices, and management of asymptomatic and symptomatic PAAs. They provide long-awaited guidance for physicians taking care of these patients, leveraging the work of a panel of experts reviewing current world literature on PAAs.
The Society for Vascular Surgery clinical practice guidelines on popliteal artery aneurysms (PAAs) leverage the work of a panel of experts chosen by the Society for Vascular Surgery to review the current world literature as it applies to PAAs to extract the most salient, evidence-based recommendations for the treatment of these patients. These guidelines focus on PAA screening, indications for intervention, choice of repair strategy, management of asymptomatic and symptomatic PAAs (including those presenting with acute limb ischemia), and follow-up of both untreated and treated PAAs. They offer long-awaited evidence-based recommendations for physicians taking care of these patients.
