Abstract

Entrapment syndromes represent a pathological process that vascular specialists encounter infrequently. However symptomatic patients are often young with impaired quality of life and successful treatment can produce great benefit, making knowledge of these conditions essential. The purpose of this review was to bring together the entrapment syndromes to understand and gain consensus on the aetiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and modern management of these rare and interesting vascular disorders. This includes entrapment syndromes of the popliteal artery, superior mesenteric artery, coeliac artery, renal vein and iliac vein.
