Division of Health Care Sciences Center for Clinical Research and Management Education Dresden, Dresden International University, Dresden, Germany.

Background: Planning surgical procedures of the lower leg benefits from considering the possibility of an aberrant anterior tibial artery (AATA), but previously published data on the frequency of this anatomic variant shows heterogeneity. We assessed the prevalence of AATA in a Latin American cohort using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and compared these with other studies reported in the literature.

Methods: We retrospectively included consecutive patients who had undergone multiplanar knee MRI at a radiology department in Lima, Peru.
