腓浅神经（SPN）为腿部和足部提供基本的运动和感觉神经支配。在该神经附近进行各种外科手术，需要外科医生熟悉其特定解剖结构。我们解剖了111条小腿，以确定SPN的解剖位置，发现神经有4个不同的位置变化。77条（69.4%）标本的神经走行于小腿外侧间室，18条（16.2%）标本的神经在外侧和前侧均分支。隔间7条（6.3%）下肢的SPN走行于肌间隔内，9条（8.1%）下肢的SPN走行于前室。这些结果证实了SPN的4种解剖变异，这将有助于外科医生在腿部外侧定位神经。
The superficial peroneal nerve (SPN) provides fundamental motor and sensory innervation to the leg and foot. A variety of surgical procedures is performed in the vicinity of this nerve, requiring that the surgeon be familiar with its specific anatomy. We dissected 111 legs to define the anatomic position of the SPN and found that the nerve had 4 distinct variations in location. In 77 (69.4%) specimens, the nerve coursed within the lateral compartment of the leg, while in 18 (16.2%) of the legs, the nerve split and contained branches in both the lateral and anterior. compartments. The nerve in 7 (6.3%) legs was found within the intermuscular septum, and in 9 (8.1%) of the specimens, the SPN traveled only within the anterior compartment. These results confirm 4 anatomic variants of the SPN, which will aid surgeons in locating the nerve in the lateral aspect of the leg.
