Abstract
The dorsiflexion function of the peroneal nerve is important for human walking. Peroneal nerve damage has various etiologies, and the classification of the mechanism depends on the energy of the force responsible for injury. Peroneal nerve damage caused by low-energy mechanisms (entrapment, compression, and compartment) is not uncommon in neurosurgery, and accurate diagnosis and treatment of these conditions necessitate an understanding of the anatomical characteristics of the peroneal nerve, clinical symptoms, and prognosis. In addition to recent conventional diagnostic methods, diagnosis using magnetic resonance imaging and the surgical method of external neurolysis and decompression of the fibular tunnel in PICPNe patients will be described.
