The objective is to report 3 cases of intraneural cyst (ganglion) of the peroneal nerve and compare our own findings with the data from scientific literature. Case reports. Three patients with intraneural ganglions of the common peroneal nerve were treated in the Department of Neurosurgery, A.Ya. Kozhevnikov Clinic of Nervous Diseases, I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University between 2013 and 2019. All patients underwent extensive dissection of the cyst wall, evacuation of secretion; 2 of them had ligation of the articular nerve branch, while in one patient, the articular branch was not revealed. Complete nerve recovery was registered in all cases. Conclusion. We believe that ganglion dissection using microsurgical techniques with surgical microscope is a safe and noncomplex procedure; therefore, the avoidance of this manipulation seems unjustified. Conflict of interest. The authors declare no conflict of interest. Informed consent. All patients gave written informed consent to the publication of their data.
