Tensor Fasciae Suralis Muscle: Report of a Symptomatic Case With Emphasis on Imaging Findings

We report a case of a symptomatic tensor fasciae suralis (TFS) muscle in an elite jumper, with a very rare tear in its origin. The TFS muscle must be recognized and differentiated from other pathologic entities in the popliteal region. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound (US) can reliably identify this variant and its pathology.
