    (a) Preliminary arteriogram for calibration and sizing a popliteal aneurysm for stenting. (b) Radiograph demonstrating positioning of the stent graft device for popliteal aneurysm stenting. (c) Angiogram after deployment of Haemobahn stent graft excluding the popliteal aneurysm. (d) Lateral view angiogram of the popliteal artery aneurysm after deployment of the stent graft with the knee in the 90°-flexed position.
