A member asked:
What is the recovery time after having the surgery for a popliteal aneurysm repair?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2-4 weeks: If treated while asymptomatic, popliteal artery aneurysm repair is accomplished with a fem-pop bypass and tying off the aneurysm above and below the aneurysm itself. Recovery in the hospital is often 2-3 days and gradual return to regular activity is usually seen within 2-4 weeks.
