Variations in sural nerve formation pattern and distribution on the dorsum of the foot

Abstract: The sural nerve, a cutaneous nerve, is clinically important because it is frequently for nerve conduction testing, biopsy, and harvesting for nerve grafts. This nerve exhibits a wide variety of variation in formation, distribution on the dorsum of the foot, and so on, depending on the population observed. In this study, we examined the variation in the sural nerve in 110 Korean cadavers. Of these cadavers, 86.1% of the sural nerves corresponded to type A, where tibial and peroneal components were united to for… Show more

“…The SN runs medially to laterally and contacts the lateral side of the Achilles tendon 6–16 cm proximal to its distal contact with the calcaneus (ACK, 2017; Webb, )]. A concerning fact about the SN is its great anatomic variability, leaving it difficult to predict risk of injury when operating in this region (Jeon, ). Nevertheless, awareness of clinical anatomy helps surgeons while they are operating in area of the SN.…”

“…Type 1 was the most common in these studies similar to the K4 and K6 of Kosinski's classification. Jeon and colleagues [16] in 2017 performed the study of the SN pattern following the previous research of Madhavi and colleagues' [14] classification. Type 3 was the most common by observed type (24.10%) [16].…”

“…Jeon and colleagues [16] in 2017 performed the study of the SN pattern following the previous research of Madhavi and colleagues' [14] classification. Type 3 was the most common by observed type (24.10%) [16]. In 2019, Heo and colleagues [6] clarified the distribution of dorsal cutaneous nerves on the dorsum of the foot, reported the classification of nerve pattern of the sural and DPN into five and four types respectively.…”

“…Jeong y cols. 17 estudiaron el origen y recorrido del nervio sural en 110 casos y encontraron al nervio sural dando inervación al 5.º, 4.º dedo y cara medial del 3 er dedo en un 53.2 % de casos, y al 5.º y 4.º dedo en un 33.3 % de casos. Todos estos datos hacen pensar que el nervio sural tiene un papel más relevante en la inervación del dorso del pie que el clásicamente descrito y no se limita únicamente a la cara lateral del quinto dedo.…”
