  • Title: Minimally invasive diagnosis of persistent sciatic artery by multidetector-row computed tomographic angiography.
    Author: Hayashi H, Yoshihara H, Takagi R, Kumazaki T.
    Journal: Heart Vessels; 2006 Jul; 21(4):267-9. PubMed ID: 16865306.
    Abstract:
    Persistent sciatic artery is a rare but potentially significant vascular anomaly that is associated with a high incidence of aneurysm formation and limb-threatening ischemic complications. The diagnosis of persistent sciatic artery has usually been made by conventional angiography. We report a case of occluded and patent persistent sciatic arteries in which multidetector-row computed tomographic angiography allowed a definitive diagnosis of this rare vascular condition.
