RESUMO
Muscular hernias are an uncommon condition that typically present as subcutaneous nodules on the legs that appear or enlarge while standing or exercising. They are usually asymptomatic, although they may sometimes be tender or painful and may cause cramps, especially in athletes. Physical examination and ultrasound imaging are the key for determining the diagnosis. We present a 67-year-old woman with tender subcutaneous nodules on both lower legs in which dynamic ultrasound examination confirmed the diagnosis of muscular hernias.
