Phleboliths in the medial distal calf consistent with the presence of a venous malformation.
Case Discussion
Phleboliths are literally "vein stones", and represent calcification within venous structures. They are particularly common in the pelvis where they may mimic ureteric calculi, and are also encountered frequently in venous malformations.
