Stenosis of the popliteal vein caused by an osteochondroma of the distal femur: a case report.

J Scarborough, J M Porter, R K Beals, R Antonovic, F S Keller.   

Abstract

This report describes a 14-year-old girl presenting with unilateral distal leg edema which developed on the basis of popliteal vein compression by a large osteochondroma of the distal femur. Excision of the osteochondroma relieved the venous obstruction, and the leg returned to normal. Lesions of tibial arteries and veins caused by osteochondromas of the distal femur are discussed.
