Abstract

We present a case report on the off-label use of the Merit Wrapsody® covered stent for popliteal artery aneurysm (PAA) treatment. This device, typically indicated for use in hemodialysis access, was successfully employed to percutaneously exclude a symptomatic PAA. This case highlights the feasibility and potential advantages of this endoprosthesis in arterial settings beyond its original indication.
