This endo-prosthesis must improve the quality of life for patients suffering from foot drop due to the injury to the common peroneal nerve. The device that must be created should be small and surgically will be attached to the muscle internally and work as if the muscles and nerve were intact. The device would be tested outside the human body. It is important to throw light on that the device should be made of a material that is accepted by the human body and should have a stiffness that is close to the weight of the foot to ensure a normal motion. The intent of this bio-mechanical device is to help patients suffering from foot drop to restore normal motion.
