title: [Popliteal artery entrapment syndrome].
abstract: A case of popliteal artery entrapment is described in a 36 years-old woman who presented with intermittent claudication. Several aspects of this rare syndrome are reviewed: incidence, pathogenicity, physiopathology, diagnosis and treatment. A peculiar accent is stressed on the dynamic tests to be realised together with the general examination of patients presenting with this rare and consequently almost unrecognized entity.
