Localized hypertrophic neuropathy (LHN) is a disorder of unknown cause that presents with progressive, predominantly motor weakness in the distribution of a single nerve, with the histological appearance of the "onion bulb" formation. Because of its rarity, the condition is often ignored in the differential diagnosis of mononeuropathy. We report a case of LHN involving the posterior tibial nerve and review the literature.
局限性肥大性神经病（LHN）是一种病因不明的疾病，表现为单根神经分布区域进行性、以运动功能障碍为主的肌无力，组织学表现为“洋葱球”样结构。由于其罕见性，在单神经病的鉴别诊断中该疾病常被忽视。我们报告1例累及胫后神经的LHN病例并复习相关文献。
