Abstract

A 42-year-old man had a 2-year history of progressive asymptomatic left calf enlargement. MRI showed diffuse swelling of left calf muscles (figure, A and B); biopsy displayed neurogenic changes (figure, C and D). Electrodiagnostic examination results were compatible with left chronic S1 radiculopathy and lumbosacral MRI revealed an ipsilateral L5-S1 disc protrusion encroaching on the foraminal space.
