✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A case of compression of the common peroneal nerve caused by a ganglion herniating from the superior tibio‐fibular joint is reported. MR imaging was partially helpful in making the diagnosis. The patient has made an almost complete recovery 3 months after excision of the lesion. Early diagnosis and treatment is required to ensure recovery.
