Hi
The most likely reason for it is a popliteal aneurysm(dilated artery). Please visit a Vascular surgeon for further treatment plan. He would suggest a bypass graft mostly. Not to panic this condition is highly associated with Abdominal aorta aneurysm. Hope you find my suggestion useful. Feel free to ask any more questions.
Thanking you
