Fibular Neck Decompression
Surgery may be considered after specialist evaluation when peroneal nerve entrapment causes persistent numbness, pain, or foot drop, and conservative treatments (rest, bracing, physical therapy, etc.) are ineffective, or when imaging/electrophysiology indicates significant conduction restriction.

How Fibular Neck Decompression is performed
This procedure targets peroneal nerve compression near the fibular neck, with options for open or minimally invasive approaches under microscopic instruments and magnified illumination. It typically involves gradually releasing dense fascia, fibrous tunnels, and adhesions along the nerve's course, addressing cysts or proliferative tissues when necessary, while preserving blood supply and branches. Hemostasis and irrigation are followed by layered closure, with drainage considered as needed. Postoperatively, attention is given to pain, sensation, and foot dorsiflexion strength, along with nerve protection and rehabilitation training. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details depend on specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
