title: Arterial and venous compromise by an osteochondroma.
abstract: A 9.5-year-old girl had popliteal arterial and venous compression by a distal femoral osteochondroma. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated the relation of the vessels to the osteochondroma and a three-phase bone scintigram showed asymmetry of arterial perfusion and evidence of venous stasis.
