Anatomic variation could account for some of this difficulty. Cadaver dissection and electrophysiological testing were used to characterize deep and superficial fibular sensory nerve supply to the foot.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Nineteen feet from 15 (8 males and 7 females) cadavers were dissected to identify the deep fibular nerves (DFNs) and superficial fibular nerves (SFNs). Sensation to the first dorsal web space was tested electrophysiologically in 101 participants (31 males and 70 females) with an age range of 18\u201347\u2009years with stimulation over both DFNs and SFNs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Eleven of the 19 (58%) cadaver limbs had a communication between SFNs and DFNs in the dorsum of the foot. A reliable sensory response was recorded in the first dorsal web space in 88% of the limbs tested. Deep fibular stimulation alone produced a response in 34% of the limbs, while superficial fibular stimulation alone produced a response in 10% of the limbs. A separate response with stimulation of both the DFNs and SFNs was recorded in 44% of the limbs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>A functional superficial to deep fibular sensory communication is present in a significant portion of the population. Those with the communication may not have the isolated sensory loss that would be expected in the first dorsal web space in conditions impacting the DFNs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ca.23592","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,20]],"date-time":"2020-03-20T18:59:47Z","timestamp":1584730787000},"page":"544-549","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Communications between the superficial and deep fibular nerves in the foot: An anatomical and electrophysiological study"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"34","author":[{"given":"Colleen","family":"Manning","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Health Sciences, Belmont University  Nashville Tennessee USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Samantha","family":"Cook","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Health Sciences, Belmont University  Nashville Tennessee USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Royale","family":"Rand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Health Sciences, Belmont University  Nashville Tennessee USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jessie","family":"Mills","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Health Sciences, Belmont University  Nashville Tennessee USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ashley","family":"Thomas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Health Sciences, Belmont University  Nashville Tennessee USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1781-7423","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kathleen","family":"Galloway","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Health Sciences, Belmont University  Nashville Tennessee USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.jfas.2017.11.022"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/rg.2015150028"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","first-page":"583","volume-title":"Gray's anatomy for students","author":"Drake R.
