RESUMO
This is a case of a 19-year-old female collegiate field hockey player with left leg pain, numbness, and tingling. A comprehensive workup including dynamic ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and magnetic resonance angiogram (MRA) revealed a type VI functional popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES). There are many options for treatment of functional PAES including activity modification, botulinum toxin injection, and surgery. To the authors' knowledge there is no published return to sport recommendation for postsurgical functional PAES. This report highlights alternative treatment options and proposes a postsurgical return to play rehabilitation protocol in functional PAES. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: V.
