Abstract

Isolated popliteal vein entrapment is a very rare occurrence. We present a case of a young man who developed isolated popliteal venous entrapment resulting from extrinsic compression by the popliteus muscle soon after initiating an exercise program.

Key Words: compression • isolated popliteal vein entrapment • popliteus muscle • venogram
