A filiform stenosis of the popliteal artery was examined by sonography and the reason for the cystic lesion in the arterial wall was found to be an uncommon type of cystic degeneration of the adventitia. The narrow lumen could be demonstrated by sonography and the lesion was punctured under ultrasound control. A viscous secretion was removed and the patient's claudication was cured without recourse to surgery.
