Abstract This report highlights the case of cystic adventitial disease of the left popliteal artery in a 45‐year‐old male patient. Imaging modalities confirmed the diagnosis and high resolution MRI found a cystic connection to the adjacent knee joint. The evolution was unusual with spontaneous regression of the symptoms.
