case_images: Magnetic Resonance (MRI), SE T1 Dual axial (a), SE T2 FFE sagittal (b) showing a 4 cm oval-shaped formation with dishomogeneous hyperintensity in the left popliteal fossa adjacent to the vessels.

case_images: Angio-Computed Tomography (ACT) was obtained with three phases: arterious (a), venous (b), and delayed (c) from the injection of contrast media. The ACT acquisition confirmed a 36 mm x 17 mm oval mass in the left popliteal fossa. This lesion presented contrast enhancement only in delayed acquisition (c) and so appeared to be a true venous aneurysm.

case_images: This lesion had presented contrast enhancement only in delayed acquisition (180 sec) and so appeared to be a true venous aneurysm(Figures 2 and 3).
case_images: Angio-Computed Tomography (ACT) scan reconstruction using maximal intensity projection (MIP), volume rendering (VR) technique, and 3D showing the popliteal venous aneurysm in the left popliteal fossa.
