PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to evaluate the anatomical details of the articular branch of the peroneal nerve to the proximal tibiofibular joint and to project the height of its descent in relation to the fibular length. METHODS: Twenty-five lower extremities were included in the study. Following identification of the common peroneal nerve, its course was traced to its division into the deep and superficial peroneal nerve. The articular branch was identified. The postero-lateral tip of the fibular head was marked and the interval from this landmark to the diversion of the articular branch was measured. The length of the fibula, as the interval between the postero-lateral tip of the fibular head and the tip of the lateral malleolus, was evaluated. The quotient of descending point of the articular branch in relation to the individual fibular length was calculated. RESULTS: The articular branch descended either from the common peroneal nerve or the deep peroneal nerve. The descending point was located at a mean height of 18.1 mm distal to the postero-lateral tip of the fibular head. Concerning the relation to the fibular length, this was at a mean of 5.1%, starting from the same reference point. CONCLUSION: The articular branch of the common peroneal nerve was located at a mean height of 18.1 mm distal to the the postero-lateral tip of the fibular head, respectively, at a mean of 5.1% of the whole fibular length starting from the same reference point. These details represent a convenient orientation during surgical treatment of intraneural ganglia of the common peroneal nerve, which may result directly from knee trauma and indirectly from ankle sprain.
