“…The last two nerves originate from the former in the region of the fibular neck (Moore, 2006). The superficial fibular nerve contin- ues distally in the lateral compartment of the leg, supplies the fibularis longus and brevis muscles, and pierces the sural fascia over the lateral compartment before continuing into the foot as the intermediate and medial dorsal cutaneous nerves (Adkison et al, 1991;Moore, 2006;Browne and Morris, 2007). The deep fibular nerve descends into the ankle region, after supplying the muscles of the anterior compartment of the leg, and divides into lateral and medial terminal branches (Moore, 2006).…”

“…In the present case, the piercing of medial and lateral branches were at different levels; medial being piercing the intermuscular septum at the level about 23 cm above the ankle and the lateral branch piercing the deep fascia about 12 cm above the ankle. Even though the cases wherein the superficial peroneal nerve diverges into two and then pierces the fascia are not rare globally [5,13,16], we have observed high division of superficial peroneal nerve in only 1% of cases in our laboratory. So, it's a rare occurrence in Indian population.…”

“…The nerve has been described as arising from the nerve to peroneus brevis [4]. The superficial peroneal nerve may bifurcate in the upper part of the leg and both the branches may remain in the lateral compartment [5]. Very rarely the superficial peroneal nerve may be seen in the anterior intermuscular septum [6,7].…”

“…Dentro de las variaciones del NFS se ha descrito la división alta de éste, donde los ramos de división, ramos cutáneos dorsales del pie, medial e intermedio, pueden tener un trayecto en el mismo compartimiento lateral (Browne & Morris, 2007) o en compartimientos separados, lateral y anterior, (Solomon et al, 2001;Nagabhooshana et al, 2009). Una característica interesante es la formación del nervio cutáneo dorsal medial en uno de nuestros casos, donde la división anterior del NFS se subdividió en dos ramos, los que después de un corto trayecto se unieron y formaron a este nervio, disposición no encontrada en la literatura consultada.…”
