Zusammenfassung:Variations in the popliteal artery and its tibial branches are common and have assumed greater importance with the technological advances that have made below-knee interventional revascularization feasible. The authors report a rare anatomic variant of popliteal artery agenesis, describing the CT angiographic findings with emphasis on the differential point from the occlusive disease and reviewing the embryologic development of the lower extremity vasculature.
