If the deep peroneal nerve is cut, it can result in foot drop, numbness on the top of the foot, and weakness in lifting the foot while walking. This can lead to difficulties in walking and an increased risk of tripping or falling. Physical therapy or surgery may be necessary to restore function.

What is the main function of the deep peroneal nerve?

The main function of the deep peroneal nerve is to innervate the muscles in the anterior compartment of the leg, primarily the dorsiflexors of the foot and the extensor muscles of the toes. It also provides sensory innervation to the skin between the first and second toes.


The supinator muscle is innervated by what nerves?

The supinator muscle is primarily innervated by the radial nerve, specifically the deep branch of the radial nerve. This nerve provides the necessary motor function to facilitate the supination of the forearm. Additionally, the radial nerve branches may also receive contributions from the posterior interosseous nerve, which is a continuation of the deep branch.

Which nerve lies deep to the sciatic nerve in the gluteal region?

The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the human body, originating from the lumbosacral plexus (L4-5 and S1-3) and providing sensory and motor innervation to the lower extremity. The sciatic nerve exits the pelvis via the greater sciatic foramen below the piriformis muscle. In the gluteal region, the sciatic nerve courses between muscle layers. The nerve is deep (anterior) to the gluteus maximus muscle and is superficial (posterior) to the inner muscle layers (superior and inferior gemellus muscles, obturator internus muscle, quadratus femoris muscle). It courses down the midline of the posterior thigh and branches into the tibial and common peroneal nerves usually in the popliteal fossa. Sciatic nerve block is most commonly performed for foot or ankle surgery
