ABSTRACT
Popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) is a rare vascular disease that affects young adults and athletes. Patient usually presented with intermittent claudication and infrequently with acute limb ischemia. The incidence is low and largely undiagnosed due to unawareness of the entity in general practice. This article highlighted a case of Type II PAES in a 32 years old soldier, in whom the symptoms of claudication were disregarded for two years. The diagnosis was made via ultrasound and his symptoms completely resolved after right myomectomy and popliteal bypass with interposition of vein graft. We highlight this uncommon cause of claudication and revisited management of current case with previous literature.
