Case: Tibial plateau fractures can be associated with arterial injuries or dysvascular limbs, particularly in settings of trauma. Dysvascular limb the setting fracture is commonly due to dissection artery. Entrapment artery within rare. We report a 48-year-old man who presented left popliteal entrapment tibial status-post external fixation and stent placement Conclusion: Findings from this case highlight an as mechanism high-energy lower-extremity specifically for fractures.
