Purpose
Compression of the peroneal nerve is recognized as a common cause of falls. The superficial course of the peroneal nerve exposes it to trauma and pressure from common activities such as crossing of legs. The nerve can be exposed also to distress due to metabolic problems such as diabetes. The purpose of our manuscript is to review common peroneal nerve dysfunction symptoms and treatment as well as provide a systematic assessment of its relation to falls.
Methods
We pooled the existing literature from PubMed and included studies (n = 342) assessing peroneal nerve damage that is related in any way to falls. We excluded any studies reporting non-original data, case reports and non-English studies.
Results
The final systematic assessment included 4 articles. Each population studied had a non-negligible incidence of peroneal neuropathy. Peroneal pathology was found to be consistently associated with falls.
Conclusion
The peroneal nerve is an important nerve whose dysfunction can result in falls. This article reviews the anatomy and care of the peroneal nerve. The literature review highlights the strong association of this nerve’s pathology with falls.

腓总神经功能障碍概述及其与跌倒关系的系统评估
目的
腓神经受压被认为是跌倒的常见原因。腓神经的浅层走行使其容易受到常见活动（例如交叉双腿）造成的创伤和压力。神经也可能因糖尿病等代谢问题而受到困扰。我们手稿的目的是回顾常见的腓神经功能障碍症状和治疗，并对其与跌倒的关系进行系统评估。
方法
我们汇集了 PubMed 的现有文献，并纳入了 评估与跌倒相关的腓神经损伤的研究 ( n = 342)。我们排除了任何报告非原始数据、病例报告和非英语研究的研究。
结果
最终的系统评估包括4篇文章。每个研究人群的腓神经病发病率均不可忽视。研究发现，腓骨病理学与跌倒始终相关。
结论
腓神经是重要的神经，其功能障碍可导致跌倒。本文回顾了腓神经的解剖和护理。文献综述强调了该神经的病理学与跌倒的密切相关性。
