MR Imaging of a Bilateral Lateral Segmental Anomalous Origin of the Lateral Head of the Gastrocnemius Muscles: A Case Report

A variety of anatomic variations of the gastrocnemius muscle have been identified, predominantly through cadaver studies. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of anomalies of the medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle have also been well reported, but anomalies of the lateral head of the gastr...

Summary:A variety of anatomic variations of the gastrocnemius muscle have been identified, predominantly through cadaver studies. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of anomalies of the medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle have also been well reported, but anomalies of the lateral head of the gastrocnemius muscle have been less frequently reported. We present a case of an anatomic variation of the lateral head of the gastrocnemius muscle detected as an incidental finding on MRI. KCI Citation Count: 0
