Introduction: Popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) is the rare congenital abnormality. It is a threat to the lower extremity due to ischemia in young adults.Case Report: A 32-year-old health worker (medical doctor) applied to our clinic with a complaint of lower extremity pain, paleness, and coldness, post-exercise. He did not have any complaint to make him think as ischemia. Peripheral arterial angiography was applied, but the main diagnosis was given by magnetic resonance imaging angiography. Medical thrombolytic treatment, femoral embolectomy and then tendon resection, approached posteriorly, were applied to the popliteal region.Discussion: Repeated exterior microtraumas cause thickening in the arterial wall, early atherosclerosis, thrombus and ischemia. To diagnose this entity is difficult. Treatment should be surgical, oriented to abolish the compression.Conclusion: In this case, we wanted to emphasize how quiet the progression of the PAES may be, and effacement of the compression is essential in the treatment. Femoral embolectomy does not have any aid to treatment.

Enhanced Recovery After Cardiac Surgery (ERAS Cardiac) protocols offer a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to improve patient outcomes and reduce postoperative complications. By incorporating evidence-based practices, ERAS Cardiac aims to reduce hospital stays, enhance patient satisfaction, and optimize resource utilization. Key components include patient education, prehabilitation, nutritional optimization, and personalized medicine. The protocol's success relies on interdisciplinary collaboration among healthcare professionals, as well as active patient and family engagement. Despite challenges in implementation, such as resource constraints and patient variability, ongoing research and adaptive strategies continue to refine ERAS Cardiac programs, promising significant advancements in cardiac surgical care and recovery.
