Persistent sciatic artery is a rare but potentially significant vascular anomaly that is associated with a high incidence of aneurysm formation and limb-threatening ischemic complications. The diagnosis of persistent sciatic artery has usually been made by conventional angiography. We report a case of occluded and patent persistent sciatic arteries in which multidetector-row computed tomographic angiography allowed a definitive diagnosis of this rare vascular condition.
持续性坐骨动脉是一种罕见但潜在意义重大的血管异常，与动脉瘤形成的高发生率以及危及肢体的缺血性并发症相关。持续性坐骨动脉的诊断通常通过传统血管造影来进行。我们报告一例闭塞性和通畅性持续性坐骨动脉病例，其中多排螺旋计算机断层血管造影术得以明确诊断这种罕见的血管疾病。
