Abstract
Adventitial cystic disease (ACD), a rare vascular disease characterized by mucus accumulation in the adventitia of blood vessels, typically affects the popliteal artery. We present the case of a 61-year-old female diagnosed with ACD in 2018 who was initially treated with endovascular stenting and percutaneous aspiration of the cyst. The patient, who had been asymptomatic for 5 years, developed a stent fracture and pseudoaneurysm requiring surgical intervention. Despite initial successful treatment, complications such as stent fracture and recurrence can occur; therefore, surgical treatment is recommended to optimize outcomes in patients with ACD. Endovascular treatment and cyst aspiration should only be considered in cases with high surgical risk. After treatment, long-term follow-up and individualized management strategies are important to monitor ACD recurrence.
