Abstract:
METHODS: The patient, a 21-year-old female Division I track and field athlete, presents with bilateral calf pain, tightness, numbness, and swelling during activity. Initially diagnosed with chronic exertional compartment syndrome (CECS), she underwent bilateral four-compartment fasciotomies. After 4 months, she experienced persistence of some of her prefasciotomy symptoms and was referred to vascular surgery. A fibrous band was compressing the popliteal artery, making the diagnosis of popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES). She underwent bilateral popliteal artery decompressions. She had a successful recovery with no recurrence of numbness, weakness, or pain.
CONCLUSIONS: Recognize that structural PAES may coexist with CECS.

方法:患者,一名21岁的女子一级田径运动员,表现为双侧小腿疼痛,松紧度,麻木,活动期间肿胀。最初诊断为慢性劳累性室综合征(CECS),她接受了双侧四室筋膜切开术。4个月后,她经历了一些血管前切开术症状的持续,并被转诊为血管手术。一条纤维带正在压迫the动脉,诊断为pop动脉卡压综合征(PAES)。她接受了双侧pop动脉减压术。她成功康复,没有麻木复发,弱点,或疼痛。
结论:认识到结构性PAES可能与CECS共存。
