Résumé
Infected popliteal aneurysm is a high-risk condition that may present as an emergency requiring an urgent attention with acute rupture and sepsis. The management of acute ischemia in the presence of local and systemic sepsis is challenging, and infection control and perioperative management during surgery are important. Here we report successful case of treating a patient with an infected popliteal aneurysm. The infection seemed to arise from the soft tissue surrounding the aneurysm, following cellulitis. Our report also includes a review of the related literature and suggests that devising methods for infection control is critical in achieving acceptable outcomes in such cases.
