This case report describes a case of Popliteal Entrapment Syndrome causing unilateral ischaemic claudication symptoms in an otherwise healthy soldier. The condition is rare but is an important cause of exercise related leg pain; untreated it can progress to structural arterial damage requiring reconstruction. Early identification of such cases may allow less invasive treatment.
本病例报告描述了一例腘动脉受压综合征,该综合征在一名原本健康的士兵身上引发了单侧缺血性跛行症状。这种病症较为罕见,但却是运动相关腿痛的一个重要原因;若不治疗,病情可能会发展为需要进行血管重建的结构性动脉损伤。早期识别此类病例或许能采用侵入性较小的治疗方法。
