Abstract
We report a case of spontaneous regression of a cystic adventicial dis ease of a popliteal artery in a 37 years old man. The peroperative res ection of the adventicia give us the histologic confirmation of the di agnostic. The cyst's content may have gone through either in the peri- arterial space or through a communication with the articulation of the knee. For us, it seems to confirm the embryologic theory for the path ogenic of this disease.
