Only a few cases of infrapopliteal aneurysms are reported in the literature. These are commonly associated with trauma, infection, and iatrogenic injuries and mostly present as pseudoaneurysms. We report the case of a 44-year-old man with Behçet disease and an 8-cm tibioperoneal trunk aneurysm and discuss the management options of these aneurysms.
