“…Although our patient was not a pediatric patient, surgeons and clinicians should be aware of this possibility in children to ensure early detection. Motor recovery after surgery is typically more favorable in the pediatric population with early treatment as compared to adults [13, 14].…”

In our case report, we describe a 55-year-old male patient with isolated foot drop due to an intraneural synovial ganglion. We successfully treated the lesion with decompression via epineurotomy combined with primary division of the recurrent articular branch of the common peroneal nerve (CPN). Compression neuropathies of the common peroneal nerve arise from a variety of causes. Intrinsic compression due to intraneural ganglion cysts of the CPN is rare. Previous reports of simple decompression of the cystic fluid have resulted in recurrence. The unified articular theory describes a pathway for fluid to fill from the proximal tibiofibular joint into the CPN via a recurrent articular branch. In our case, we divide this articular branch which we feel prevents recurrence.

“…Intraneural ganglion of the peroneal nerve is most commonly located around the area of the fibular head [2,[4][5][6][7][8][9]11]. Therefore, the superior tibiofibular joint may be a central point in the pathology.…”

“…Ganglion, the most common tumours of the upper extremity, rarely result in peripheral nerve compression [3]. Compression neuropathies of the lower extremity are much less common and only a handful of cases have been described [2][3][4][5][6][7][10][11][12]. The peak incidence has been reported to occur in the fourth decade of life and it is extremely rare in children [4,11].…”
