Schwannomas arising from deep peroneal nerves are rare and often remain clinically silent until local mass effects cause pain, dysesthesia, or motor\/sensory deficits.\n\nCase Report: A 20-year-old female presented with a 6-month history of pain and swelling in her right leg, with difficulty in standing and walking for longer durations. Imaging revealed a well-defined lesion along the deep peroneal nerve. Surgical enucleation of the tumour was performed, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of schwannoma. Postoperatively, the patient experienced a significant improvement in symptoms with no recurrence at the latest follow-up.\n\nConclusion: Schwannomas arising from deep peroneal nerves are rare. However, they should be considered in patients with chronic leg pain and swelling with neurological symptoms in the leg and calf region. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice, and complete resection is generally curative.\n\nKeywords: Schwannoma, neurilemmoma, peripheral nerve tumors, peroneal nerve, benign tumor.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.13107\/jocr.2026.v16.i07.7690","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,10]],"date-time":"2026-07-10T05:10:55Z","timestamp":1783660255000},"page":"362-365","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Schwannoma Arising from the Deep Peroneal Nerve: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.13107","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Divesh","family":"Jalan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Central Institute of Orthopaedics, VMMC and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amit K.","family":"Jha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Central Institute of Orthopaedics, VMMC and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dharmendra K.","family":"Singh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiodiagnosis and Intervention Radiology, VMMC and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Geetika","family":"Khanna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Central Institute of Orthopaedics Lab, VMMC and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vikas","family":"Gupta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Central Institute of Orthopaedics, VMMC and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"5271","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"container-title":["Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,10]],"date-time":"2026-07-10T05:10:57Z","timestamp":1783660257000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jocr.co.in\/wp\/2026\/07\/schwannoma-arising-from-the-deep-peroneal-nerve-a-case-report\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.13107\/jocr.2026.v16.i07.7690","relation":{},"ISSN":["2321-3817"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2321-3817","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026]]}}}
