Abstract:
A 16-year-old male was transferred to our institution shortly after a gunshot injury to the right lower extremity. Physical examination was remarkable for two bullet entry points in the right posterior leg. A right lower extremity computed tomography angiogram (CTA) demonstrated a retained bullet fragment in the right popliteal fossa and a 10 centimeter (cm) in length occlusion of the proximal peroneal artery with reconstitution of flow distally. A diagnostic angiogram of the right lower extremity with the patient's leg extended demonstrated lack of popliteal arterial flow immediately distal to the retained bullet fragment. Reconstitution of vascular flow was appreciated once the patient's leg was placed in the "frog-leg" position.

Muscles that Move the Leg
Anterior Compartment
The quadriceps femoris, the most visible muscle of the anterior compartment, is integral for leg extension and thigh flexion. It is formed by merging four distinct muscles — the vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, vastus intermedius, and rectus femoris. The quadriceps tendon, a shared tendon of the four quadriceps muscles, is affixed...

Anterior Compartment
The anterior compartment includes muscles that contribute to the dorsiflexion of the foot. This compartment houses the tibialis anterior, extensor hallucis longus, and extensor digitorum longus muscles....
