Abstract
Lower extremity intermittent claudication is usually related to atherosclerotic disease. The most common non-atherosclerotic causes are arterites, chronic compartmental syndrome, bone compression, and popliteal entrapment syndrome. The authors report a case of a patient with intermittent claudication related to anterior tibial artery entrapment caused by the interosseous membrane. Magnetic resonance angiography showed compression of the anterior tibial artery during dynamic maneuvers and the patient was managed by releasing the cause of compression, resulting in relief from claudication.Entities:
