Some patients may suffer a complete sciatic nerve lesion proximal to the hamstring, with a sciatic distribution of pain and paraesthesia, impaired knee flexion, a flail foot due to loss of dorsiflexion and plantar flexion, a loss of posterior tibialis foot invertors and peroneus longus and brevis foot evertors, and sensory loss to the posterior thigh, lower lateral leg and foot.…”
