    AbstractPlanning for peripheral nerve surgery requires consideration of a multitude of factors, as well as a surgeon's meticulous skill and experience. With so little room for error, every advantage must be taken to optimize repair. Peripheral nerve surgery of the foot and ankle is an underappreciated area of neurosurgery with comparatively limited published reports and data. The authors reviewed the current trends in the surgical management of peripheral nerve injuries of the foot and ankle in the hope that an understanding of the basic principles involved will allow for future study of the results of such surgery by more surgeons who deal with these problems.
