    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Two accessory peroneal nerves were identified in humans: the deep and superficial types. The accessory superficial peroneal nerve may be significant in leg and foot surgeries.

    Area of Science:

    • Anatomy
    • Human Anatomy
    • Peripheral Nervous System

    Context:

    • The accessory deep peroneal nerve, first identified in humans by Bryce in 1897, is a terminal branch of the superficial peroneal nerve.
    • This nerve winds around the lateral malleolus, supplying the lateral portion of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle.
    • Accessory peroneal nerves are variations of the common peroneal nerve.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate and describe the accessory superficial peroneal nerve in human subjects.
    • To determine the prevalence and anatomical course of the accessory superficial peroneal nerve.
    • To highlight the potential surgical significance of this nerve variation.

    Summary:

    • The accessory deep peroneal nerve was identified in 21.2% of subjects.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • The accessory superficial peroneal nerve was found in 10% of subjects (14/140) or 7.9% of legs (22/280).
  • This nerve pierces the anterior crural intermuscular septum, descends anteriorly, and becomes the medial cutaneous nerve of the foot dorsum.

    • Impact:

    • The accessory superficial peroneal nerve may have implications for surgical procedures involving the leg and foot.
    • Understanding these anatomical variations is crucial for accurate surgical planning and avoiding iatrogenic injury.
    • This study contributes to the detailed anatomical knowledge of the peripheral nervous system.
