Abstract Background Chronic exertional compartment syndrome CECS is characterized by elevated pressures within a closed space of an extremity muscular compartment causing pain and or disability by impairing the neuromuscular function of the involved compartment. The diagnosis of CECS is primarily made on careful history and physical exam. The gold standard test to confirm the diagnosis of CECS is invasive intra-compartmental pressure measurements. Sensory nerve function is often diminished during symptomatic periods of
