Abstract

The authors describe a case of paralysis of the common peroneal nerve in a bowls player. The symptoms regressed and disappeared after discontinuing the sport above mentioned. It is therefore concluded that the repetitive stretching of the nerve at the level of the head of the fibula, and the consequent axonostenosis, play a key role in the pathogenesis of the syndrome.
