Background: Peroneus longus (PL) graft harvest has gained popularity in recent years for a variety of ligament surgeries. One of the common apprehensions regarding its more widespread usage has been the risk of injury to the common peroneal nerve or the sural nerve during graft harvest. The purpose of the current study is to assess the rate of injury to the peroneal and sural nerve following PL harvest using our technique in a large cohort of patients.
