 We report the case of a female patient who presented with acute sciatica and foot drop. A 25-year-old woman was referred to the orthopedic unit for assessment of left sciatica and foot drop. The clinical diagnosis was thought to be sacro plexus palsy with corpus luteum cyst. Surgical excision of the cyst resulted in full recovery of the foot drop. Corpus luteum cyst rarely causes pressure on the lumbosacral plexus. This was a case of corpus luteum cyst as one of the hidden causes of lower limb weakness and foot drop. We recommend inclusion of the pelvic cavity examination when assessing sciatica and foot drop.
