Fig. 1A. 52-year-old man with venous vascular malformation in lower
portion of right leg. Photograph shows ectatic crural veins and dermal changes
in affected leg. VTP = vena tibialis posterior, ATP = arteria tibialis
posterior.

Fig. 2C. 64-year-old man with venous vascular malformation of lateral
aspect of left calf. Transverse 2D T1-weighted STIR (C) and transverse
2D T1-weighted contrast-enhanced (D) images provide equally accurate
depictions of true extent of lesion involving subcutaneous fat and anterior
portions of tibial muscle and bone.

Fig. 2E. 64-year-old man with venous vascular malformation of lateral
aspect of left calf. Early (E) and late phase (F)
maximum-intensity-projection images were obtained from three-dimensional
contrast-enhanced MR angiography. Left hypoplastic anterior tibial artery is
shown on early phase image (arrow, E).
