SummaryObjectives: To investigate the specificity of anaesthesia of the deep branch of the lateral plantar nerve (DB-LPN).Methods: Twenty horses had DB-LPN anaesthesia performed by a single injection technique as part of a lameness investigation. The mechanical nociceptive threshold (NT) was measured using a handheld force meter at six points on the lateral aspect of the limb: before diagnostic anaesthesia (T0), and at 15 (T15) and 30 (T30) minutes post anaesthesia. Paired t-tests were performed and significance was set at p <0.05. In addition, ten cadaveric limbs were injected with 2.5 ml new methylene blue solution using a single injection technique to evaluate the extent of dye diffusion within the proximal metatarsal region.Results: Compared with T0, there was a significant decrease in NT for all points combined at T15 (p = 0.008) and also at T30 (p = 0.007). There was a significant decrease in NT at T15 on the lateral third metatarsal bone (p = 0.012). At T30 there was a significant decrease in NT at the lateral sesamoid (p = 0.007), lateral third metatarsal bone (p = 0.031), and mid metatarsus (p = 0.033). Four out of 20 horses had a NT greater than 10 N at the lateral heel bulb at T30. In the cadaveric limbs, the total diffusion distance for all limbs (mean ± SD) was 70.4 ± 20.5 mm. Dye surrounded the DB-LPN in all limbs and the lateral plantar nerve (LPN) in nine out of 10 limbs.Clinical significance: Concurrent anaesthesia of the LPN is likely to occur when DBLPN anaesthesia is performed using a single injection technique.

Previous anatomic studies of the medial heel region were done on embalmed human cadavers. Here, the innervation of the medial heel region was studied by dissecting living tissue with the use of 3.5-power loupe magnification during decompression of the medial ankle for tarsal tunnel syndrome in 85 feet. The medial heel was found to be innervated by just one medial calcaneal nerve in 37% of the feet, by two medial calcaneal nerves in 41%, by three medial calcaneal nerves in 19%, and by four medial calcaneal nerves in 3%. An origin for a medial calcaneal nerve from the medial plantar nerve was found in 46% of the feet. This nerve most often innervates the skin of the posteromedial arch, where it is at risk for injury during calcaneal spur removal or plantar fasciotomy. Knowledge of the variations in location of the medial calcaneal nerves may prevent neuroma formation during surgery and provide insight into the variability of heel symptoms associated with tarsal tunnel syndrome.
