A rare persistent sciatic artery was found in a 60-year-old man, connecting the iliac artery to the popliteal artery. This anatomical variation shows the sciatic artery joining the femoral artery

Area of Science:

  • Vascular anatomy
  • Human embryology
  • Surgical anatomy

Background:

  • The sciatic artery is a fetal vessel that typically atrophies during development.
  • Persistence of the sciatic artery is a rare congenital anomaly.

Observation:

  • A 60-year-old Japanese male presented with a persistent sciatic artery.
  • The right persistent sciatic artery measured 5 mm in diameter.
  • It connected the internal iliac artery proximally and the popliteal artery distally.

Findings:

  • The terminal portion of the femoral artery (3 mm in diameter) connected to the persistent sciatic artery in the popliteal fossa.
  • This case illustrates a complete type of persistent sciatic artery.

Implications:

  • Understanding this anomaly is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment of vascular pathologies in the lower limb.
  • Knowledge of persistent sciatic artery variations aids surgeons in avoiding complications during vascular procedures.
  • This case contributes to the literature on rare vascular variations and their clinical significance.
