Anatomical study of middle cluneal nerve entrapment
OBJECT Entrapment of the middle cluneal nerve (MCN) under the long posterior sacroiliac ligament (LPSL) is a possible, and underdiagnosed, cause of low-back and/or leg symptoms. To date, detailed anatomical studies of MCN entrapment are few. The purpose of this study was to ascertain, using cadavers, the relationship between the MCN and LPSL and to investigate MCN entrapment. METHODS A total ...
متن کاملAnatomical etiology of “pseudo-sciatica” from superior cluneal nerve entrapment: a laboratory investigation
Objective The superior cluneal nerve (SCN) may become entrapped where it pierces the thoracolumbar fascia over the iliac crest; this can cause low back pain (LBP) and referred pain radiating into the posterior thigh, calf, and occasionally the foot, producing the condition known as "pseudo-sciatica." Because the SCN was thought to be a cutaneous branch of the lumbar dorsal rami, originating fro...
متن کاملSuperior cluneal nerve entrapment eight years after decubitus surgery.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Superior cluneal nerve (SCN) entrapment is one of the infrequent etiologies of low back pain (LBP), which is rarely diagnosed. Few clinical reports have been published in the literature. We present a case of severe LBP radiating to the ipsilateral buttock after decubitus surgery. CASE REPORT A 62-year-old man weighing 85 kg presented to the algology department, suffer...
متن کاملTreatment of low back pain elicited by superior cluneal nerve entrapment neuropathy after lumbar fusion surgery
Object: Low back pain (LBP) attributable to fusion failure, implant failure, infection, malalignment, or adjacent segment disease may persist after lumbar fusion surgery (LFS). Superior cluneal nerve (SCN) entrapment neuropathy (SCNEN) is a clinical entity that can produce LBP. We report that SCNEN treatment improved LBP in patients who had undergone LFS. Methods: Between April 2012 and August ...
متن کاملANATOMICAL VARIATIONS OF THE CHORDA TYMPANI NERVE
The author studied anatomical variations of the origin of the chorda tympani nerve from the mastoid portion of the facial nerve. The studies were performed on 200 specimens of human temporal bone. It was found that the chorda tympani may arise from the facial nerve in three levels: most commonly from the mid third of its mastoid segment (70%), less commonly from the proximal third (20%), an...
