摘要
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. © 2016, Springer-Verlag France.
