Although various congenital abnormalities have been described, congenital absence of calf musculature is extremely rare, with only one report on its complete absence. We are the first to describe a case of congenital absence of muscles of the superficial posterior compartment of the calf presenting in a toddler. The child presented with a history of a painless limp, however no significant difference was found in functional gait analysis. We suggest that such cases should be monitored and parents can be reassured that no immediate treatment is required.
尽管已经描述了各种先天性异常,但小腿肌肉完全缺失的先天性发育不良极其罕见,仅有一例完整缺失的报告。我们首次描述了一例幼儿出现小腿后浅肌群先天性缺失的病例。患儿表现为无痛性跛行,但功能步态分析无明显差异。我们建议对此类病例进行监测,并且可以让家长放心,目前不需要立即进行治疗。
