Surgical release of anterior tibial artery entrapment with associated popliteal artery entrapment
Popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) is compression of the popliteal artery from embryologic myotendinous variation or calf muscle hypertrophy. PAES necessitates prompt diagnosis and complete release of the entrapped vasculature for symptom relief
