Abstract:
Intraneural ganglion of the tibial nerve is very rare. We have experienced a case of the intraneural ganglion cyst in the tibial nerve and medial plantar nerve, which was located at the level of the ankle and foot. A 29-year-old male suffered from lumps causing numbness around the medial aspect of the sole and great toe. But there was no weakness and change of the motor function. We excised the cystic mass successfully and the neurologic symptoms disappeared.
