The purpose of this study is to report that a patient suffered from Common Peroneal Neuropathy (CPN) caused by ankle sprain was improved by acupuncture plus electro-acupuncture. In this study, the patient was diagnosed with magnetic resonance image(MRI) and electomyography(EMG). We treated at acupoints ST36, ST41, SP9, GB34, GB39 and LR3 by acupuncture plus electro-acupuncture twice a day for 16 days; a total of 30 times . We used evaluation scale including muscle manual testing(MMT) and visual analogue scale (VAS). MMT changed from Grade 0 to Grade 5 and VAS changed from 10 to 2 after treatment for 16days with hospitalization. Though it is a case report, these results suggest that acupuncture and electrical acupuncture might have valid effect on CPN in controlled environment.
