Entrapment of an accessory superficial peroneal sensory nerve.
Overview
abstract
A 29 year old man had an accessory branch of the superficial peroneal nerve which entered the foot by rostro-caudally traversing the lateral malleolus laterally. The nerve was entrapped by a fascial band, resulting in pain over the lateral malleolus and dorsum of foot. Symptoms resolved when the nerve was surgically released.
