Abstract
Neurological deficits with peripheral venous aneurysm are extremely rare. We report this rare event in an elderly female presenting with difficulty in walk for 2 months, a swelling in the right popliteal fossa, and inability to dorsiflex the right foot. She was successfully managed with surgical intervention.
