A 15-year-old girl with knee pain. Axial intermediate-weighted MR image demonstrates accessory band (third head) (arrow) of the lateral head of the gastrocnemius muscle. Although this is seen in asymptomatic patients, it can cause mass effect on popliteal vessels in patients with popliteal entrapment syndrome.
