Introduction. Sciatic vessels most often accompany the sciatic nerve. Sciatic vessels are very rare.
Aim. In this paper we determine the procedure in sciatic vessels surgical treatment.
Description of the case. We present the case of a 75-year-old patient with symptoms of acute right lower limb ischemia. The patient was discharged home in good condition, and remains in outpatient control to this day.
Conclusion. The popliteal artery proved to be available, but much deeper than usual.
