Abstract

A 35-year-old woman was referred to physical therapy by her primary care physician for right calf pain with gradual onset over 1 year. Following examination, the patient underwent 2 months of treatment; given limited progress, the patient was referred to an orthopaedist. Radiographs revealed several phleboliths and magnetic resonance imaging revealed an intramuscular vascular mass within the lateral gastrocnemius. <i>J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2020;50(2):110. doi:10.2519/jospt.2020.9091</i>.
