    Author: Shim JS, Lee JH, Han SH, Kim M, Lee HJ, Min K.
    Journal: PM R; 2014 Sep; 6(9):849-52. PubMed ID: 24486918.
    Abstract:
    Superficial peroneal neuropathy is a known complication of foot and ankle arthroscopy. A 27-year-old man developed pain and paresthesia on the medial side of the dorsum of his left foot after ankle arthroscopy. An electrodiagnostic study revealed conduction abnormality in the medial branch of superficial peroneal nerve, in which neuroma-in-continuity was subsequently detected by ultrasonography. After neuroma excision and nerve graft, the subject's neuropathic pain was substantially improved.
