Osteochondroma, the most common tumor of bone, is usually asymptomatic. Vascular complications are an atypical presentation and include true or false aneurysm formation, deep venous thrombosis, and arterial insufficiency. A review of the English literature identified 130 cases of osteochondroma-related vascular complications. We describe the case of a 38-year-old man presenting with left calf pain and swelling who was diagnosed with the rare constellation of a popliteal pseudoaneurysm and incidental peroneal vein thrombosis secondary to a fractured femoral sessile osteochondroma. This was treated with resection of the osteochondroma, excision of the aneurysm, and primary end-to-end anastomosis of the artery.

Popliteal artery pseudoaneurysms are rare, especially from acupuncture-related trauma. We report a 67-year-old male with hypertension, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), who developed a popliteal pseudoaneurysm after acupuncture. Imaging confirmed the pseudoaneurysm and a 55 mm AAA.

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is becoming an increasingly prevalent clinical issue, leading to a growing number of patients requiring surgical interventions. Consequently, there is an increasing occurrence of para-anastomotic aneurysms as late complications following primary treatment for PAD. These aneurysms typically arise at the sites of graft implantation and necessitate individualized management strategies based on factors such as location, size, and the patient's overall condition.

The lower limb is vascularized by the femoral artery, which continues as the popliteal artery. After the distal margin of the popliteus muscle, the popliteal artery divides into the anterior and posterior tibial arteries. Anatomical variations in the bifurcation of the popliteal artery are frequent.
