Abstract
Persistent sciatic artery is a rare congenital vascular anomaly that presents with various clinical features, management planning depends on the aneurysmal changes, symptoms, and anatomical features of PSA and SFA. Asymptomatic cases can be managed with observation, while for more complicated cases, surgical or endovascular intervention is needed.
