Popis: A six-year-old boy was referred to the neurophysiology clinic at the Sultan Qaboos University Hospital (SQUH), Muscat, Oman in January 2015 for an evaluation of right foot drop. His parents had noticed an abnormality in his right leg since birth. He had previously been diagnosed with foot drop and had undergone corrective surgery in August 2012. However, examination of the right lower limb revealed a ring-like band at the proximal end of the leg just below the knee [Figure 1].
