SummaryPopliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) is rare in young adults. Claudication of the young patient, which is often overlooked, is a very rare symptom for orthopedic surgeons. In elder patients, the physician might expect atherosclerotic claudication, however in young patients, popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) should be considered as a possibility in the cases of claudication. Here, an unusual presentation of an uncommon disease that is not widely known by orthopedic surgeons is reported.

“…Popliteal artery compression may cause pain or cramping in the calf. Moreover, popliteal artery compression may result in cold feet (after activity) and paresthesia, represented by tingling, burning or numbness in the posterior region of the lower leg [ 45 ].…”

“…An occurrence of additional heads of the GM may also be associated with sural nerve compression. For example, a high possibility of compression has been associated with a six-headed GM and a sural nerve located between the medial and lateral parts of the muscle [ 45 ]. Patients with entrapment of the sural nerve usually complain of sensory alterations over the distribution area of the nerve: the postero-lateral side of the distal third of the leg, lateral part of the foot and fifth toe; however, this nerve may be variable in the dorsal part of the foot, so affected regions may differ between patients.…”

Morphological variations of the calcaneal tendon: clinical significance

2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The calcaneal tendon, the largest and strongest in the human body, is created by the common junction of tendons of the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. It is not a homogenous structure, being represented by layers in various arrangements. Morphological variability can be seen in the connection between the aponeurosis of the gastrocnemius muscle and the soleus muscle. Some types of plantaris tendon can be associated with a higher possibility of Achilles tendinopathy. Moreover, the presence of accessory structures, such as an accessory soleus muscle or additional gastrocnemius muscle heads may result in symptomatic pathologies. The main aim of this review is to summarize the current state of knowledge regarding the calcaneal tendon. Another aim is to present morphological variations of the calcaneal tendon and their clinical significance. Such information may be useful for clinicians, especially orthopedists, and surgeons. This review also provides an overview of embryological development and morphological variation among fetuses. Materials and methods: review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. An electronic search was conducted in five databases. Top quality tools were used to assess the quality of evidence in the studies reviewed. Research papers that made up the database of this review were analyzed, selected and assessed by two independently working researchers.
