Resumen

Introducción. El quiste adventicial de arteria poplítea es una causa poco frecuente de síntomas isquémicos de extremidades inferiores. No obstante, es importante considerarlo en el diagnóstico diferencial de individuos jóvenes afectos de claudicación intermitente gemelar. Pese a que la etiología y patogenia de esta entidad permanece todavía incierta, un correcto diagnóstico permite al especialista restaurar el flujo sanguíneo normal de la extremidad. Caso clínico. Paciente de 57 años con claudicación intermitente y portador de un quiste adventicial de arteria poplítea, en el que su comunicación con la articulación de la rodilla puede demostrarse por resonancia magnética y confirmarse por cirugía. Conclusión. La resonancia magnética es una prueba diagnóstica que pudo mostrar claramente esta patología y reforzar la hipótesis sinovial. [ANGIOLOGÍA 2005; 57: 243-6]

Summary

Introduction. Adventitial cysts of the popliteal artery are an infrequent cause of ischaemic symptoms in the lower extremities. It is, however, important to take them into account in the differential diagnosis in young individuals with intermittent claudication in the calf muscles. Although the causation and pathogenesis of this condition remain uncertain, a correct diagnosis allows the specialist to restore normal blood flow in the extremity. Case report. We studied the case of a 57-year-old patient with intermittent claudication and an adventitial cyst of the popliteal artery, which magnetic resonance imaging showed to be communicating with the knee joint, and this was later confirmed by surgery. Conclusions. Use of magnetic resonance imaging as a diagnostic test was able to clearly demonstrate the existence of this pathology and lend support to the synovial hypothesis.
