Persistent sciatic vein is a rare anomaly of mesodermal development. When found, it is often associated with varicosities in abnormal distributions, pain, limb congestion, and hypertrophy. In this report, we describe a case of an isolated, complete persistent sciatic vein with an atypical anatomy and onset.
