Comparison of the histological structure of the tibial nerve and its terminal branches in the fresh and fresh-frozen cadavers.

CONCLUSIONS: The CSA and the number of nerve fascicles of the tibial and medial plantar nerves were similar in the fresh and fresh-frozen cadavers whilst different in the lateral plantar nerve. The tibial nerve showed increasing CSA with the advanced age in the fresh cadavers. The medial plantar nerve had larger CSA and more nerve fascicles than the lateral plantar nerve.
