“…Foot drop is defined as the weakness of an ankle or one of the toe's dorsiflexors; the tibialis anterior, extensor digitorumlongus, or extensor hallucis longus1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9). It is usually caused by LMN pathology that results from disruption of the deep peroneal nerve.…”

“…Since the motor components of the 4th and 5th spinal nerves are controlled by the primary motor cortex via the corona radiata, the internal capsule, the basal ganglia and the ventral gray matter of the spinal cord, any lesion along this neuronal pathway can be the UMN pathology of foot drop. However, since these UMN fibers are condensed and closed with many other functional neuronal fibers, isolated foot drop due to an UMN pathology is very rare3,6,8).…”

“…But, rarely it can cause motor deficits because the SMA proper transfers corticospinal efferences and is connected with the primary motor cortex7). There are only two previous reports on isolated foot drop caused by lesions other than parasagittal lesions1,3). In one of those cases, the lesion was within the corona radiata, which conveys neuronal impulses from the cerebral cortex of the primary somatotopic motor area to toe and ankle movement.…”

“…According to these previous reports, lesions of the cortical surface are more likely to cause foot drop than deeper lesions. Because the descending motor axons are compacted into a small area by deeper lesions, foot drop due to the subcortical lesions are rarely reported3).…”

Weakness of the dorsiflexor muscles of the ankle or toe, referred to as foot drop, is a relatively common presentation. In most cases, foot drop is caused by a lower motor neuron disease such as peroneal peripheral neuropathy, L4-5 radiculopathic sciatic neuropathy, or polyneuropathy. Although upper motor neuron lesions can present as foot drop, the incidence is very rare. Here, we report an extremely rare case in which foot drop was the only presenting symptom of cerebral infarction.

Проблема инсульта отражается в официальных данных ВОЗ: 15 млн новых случаев в год, из которых 5 млн инсультов фатальны, а 5 млн оставляют пациентов стойко инвалидизированными [1]. Это диктует острую необходимость повышения качества оказания медицинской помощи на всех этапах ведения пациента. При этом терапия инсульта и планирование мер вторичной профилактики возможны только в случае верной и своевременной диагностики ишемического/геморрагического события. Острый инсульт (ОИ) или транзиторную ишемическую атаку (ТИА) следует подозревать у любого пациента с внезапным развитием неврологических симптомов (в том числе атипичных), осо

Ankle sprains are extremely common in the general population and the most common injuries in athletes. Although rare, peroneal nerve palsy may occur simultaneously with ankle sprain. The exact incidence of nerve injury after ankle sprain is not known; few cases of peroneal nerve palsy associated with ankle sprains have been reported in the literature. The function of the peroneal nerve should be evaluated in all patients with a history of inversion ankle sprain as part of the initial and follow-up evaluation, even if the initial neurological status is normal, because delayed peroneal nerve palsy is possible. This article discusses the incidence, pathophysiology, evaluation, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, and management of the patients with peroneal nerve palsy after ankle sprain aiming to increase the awareness of the treating physicians for this nerve injury.
