Abstract

Popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) occurs when the popliteal artery is compressed by abnormally developed or hypertrophied muscles adjacent to the popliteal fossa. When symptomatic, it most frequently presents with leg cramping while walking or running. We describe the case of an 18-year-old female runner presenting with claudication and exercise intolerance. After MRI was non-diagnostic, diagnostic ultrasound demonstrated that she had functional (Type VI) PAES. She subsequently underwent popliteal artery release surgery. Type VI PAES should be considered in young, healthy patients who present with claudication, particularly athletes.

摘要

腘动脉受压综合征（PAES）是指腘动脉被腘窝附近异常发育或肥厚的肌肉压迫时发生的情况。出现症状时，最常见的表现是行走或跑步时腿部抽筋。我们描述了一名18岁女性跑步运动员出现间歇性跛行和运动不耐受的病例。MRI检查未能确诊，诊断性超声显示她患有功能性（VI型）PAES。她随后接受了腘动脉松解手术。对于出现间歇性跛行的年轻健康患者，尤其是运动员，应考虑VI型PAES。
