Abstract
The sciatic nerve vein follows the fibular saphenous nerve (lying superficial to the fascia in the leg). This nerve arises from the common peroneal nerve (in the popliteal fossa), and is a major branch of the sciatic nerve. Varices of the associated vein appear to be the result of a dysplasia. This condition may be more common than is currently recognised.
