ABSTRACT We report the case of a 38‐year‐old recreational female runner with anterior and lateral chronic exertional compartment syndrome treated with ultrasound‐guided fasciotomy using a V‐shaped meniscotome. She began her return‐to‐run protocol 8 days postprocedure and achieved full symptom resolution. At 6 months, ultrasound revealed persistent fascial separation without complications, representing the first report of long‐term sonographic outcomes following fasciotomy for chronic exertional compartment syndrome. These findings support further prospective studies to evaluate the clinical and sonographic outcomes of this technique.
