Popliteal Revascularization in Bilateral Persistent Sciatic Artery: Case Report

Sciatic, Iliac artery, Extremities, IschemiaAbstract
The persistent sciatic artery is a rare congenital vascular anomaly secondary to an alteration in embryological development. Most cases are asymptomatic and they are detected when they are associated with the presence of aneurysms or embolisms. We present the case of an 81-year-old woman with cardiovascular risk factors who consulted for ischemia of the lower limb.
