Microsurgical Decompression for Peroneal Nerve Entrapment Neuropathy
Neurologia medico-chirurgica, 2015 Peroneal nerve entrapment neuropathy (PNEN) is one cause of numbness and pain in the lateral lower thigh and instep, and of motor weakness of the extensors of the toes and ankle. We report a less invasive surgical procedure performed under local anesthesia to treat PNEN and our preliminary outcomes. We treated 22 patients (33 legs), 7 men and 15 women,

Early detection of peroneal neuropathy by ultrasound
Indian Journal of Orthopaedics, 2014 A 12 year old boy presented with ankle sprain. The physical examination revealed mild weakness of ankle dorsiflexion. An ultrasound was done for the soft tissues of the ankle. In addition to relative atrophy of the peroneus longus muscle, a compressive common peroneal nerve (CPN) lesion with a synovial cyst at the level of the proximal tibiofibular ...

Atypical deep peroneal neuropathy: In presence of accessory deep peroneal nerve [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1970 The clinical and electrophysiological findings in two patients with a deep peroneal neuropathy occurring in the presence of significant innervation of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle by the accessory deep peroneal nerve are reported. This nerve is a branch of the superficial peroneal nerve which was not involved in either cases reported.

[Compression-ischemic peroneal neuropathy].
Likars'ka sprava, 1994 The clinical picture is described of 4 patients with the syndrome of lesion of the peroneal developing during fixation of some physiological postures (squatting position etc.). The pathogenetic mechanisms of the disease are discussed. The authors report a characteristic monotypical clinical symptom complex of compression-ischemic peroneal neuropathy.

Hereditary neuropathies caused by mutations in the gene encoding peripheral myelin protein 22 [PDF]
Medicinski PodmladakMutations in the gene encoding peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) can manifest as Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy 1A (CMT1A), in case of duplication, or hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP), in case of deletion. In rare cases,
