Abstract

Functional popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (fPAES) is an underevaluated and undertreated etiology of atypical claudication that is challenging to diagnose. We analyzed 2 years of patients who underwent evaluation with our standardized protocol for the evaluation of fPAES. This protocol incorporates multiple diagnostic modalities including exercise ankle-brachial index (ABI), Doppler ultrasound (DUS) examination with plantarflexion, and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) with provocative maneuvers including plantarflexion.
