Foot drop caused by a brain tumor: a case report.
Foot drop is commonly caused by lumbar radiculopathy, peroneal nerve injury, spinal stenosis and other systemic diseases. It is usually thought as peripheral etiology, but it could be attributed to a central lesion, too. However, central lesions are rarely reported.

We report a 48-year-old patient suffering from right foot-drop due to acute compression of right L4 nerve root by...

The usual protocol for correction of drop foot in leprosy, a consequence of damage to the common peroneal nerve, is a tendon transfer, immobilisation to heal the tendon juncture and post-operative exercises to put the transfer into use. Tarsal disintegrations have been reported in literature in drop foot patients when the transferred tendons were inserted into the bone making a drill hole to en...
