      player: a case report.
PG  - 768-70
AB  - We report the case of an Olympic taekwondo athlete with an atypical bilateral 
      intermittent claudication that represented a handicap in her performance during 
      competition fight. Diagnosis of chronic compartment syndrome was established by 
      confirmation of compartment hypertension and the patient was submitted to 
      fasciectomy. Recurrence of symptoms like numbness or tingling after 6 months 
      raised the suspicion of deep compartmental hypertension that, once confirmed, was 
      treated by a repeat deep fasciectomy. New symptoms appeared 4 months after 
      surgery but no hypertension in the compartment was detected. Functional popliteal 
      artery entrapment syndrome (FPAES) was suspected, an unusual form of this 
      syndrome, in which a hypertrophic plantaris tendon as the cause of the entrapment 
      was observed. Resection of the band was performed in a third operation. The 
      patient evolved favourably, maintaining high competition level. Key pointsWe need 
      a thorough clinical examination to reach a satisfactory clinical diagnosis.FPAES 
      is an uncommon disease that is frequently misdiagnosed and overlooked.Dynamic 
      tests are essential for diagnosis de FPAES.
