Entrapment Neuropathies
Peripheral neuropathy is defined as deranged function and structure of peripheral, motor, sensory, and autonomic neurons, involving either the entire neuron or selected levels. The major categories of peripheral neuropathies are seen in Table 28-1. Because this chapter is concerned with nerve problems seen in the foot that are most amenable to local treatment, only the last four categories are ...
متن کاملEntrapment neuropathies.
Compression neuropathy includes a heterogeneous group of focal neuropathy syndromes related to peripheral nerve compression. Although acute or chronic compression-related injury may occur in essentially any peripheral nerve, certain anatomic considerations may predispose certain nerves to intrinsic or extrinsic compression-related injury. The clinical presentations of specific compression or en...
متن کاملFocal entrapment neuropathies in diabetes.
MONONEURITIS AND ENTRAPMENT SYNDROMES — Peripheral neuropathies in diabetes are a diverse group of syndromes, not all of which are the common distal symmetric polyneuropathy. The focal and multifocal neuropathies are confined to the distribution of single or multiple peripheral nerves and their involvement is referred to as mononeuropathy or mononeuritis multiplex. Mononeuropathies are due to v...
متن کاملEntrapment neuropathies: pathophysiology and pathogenesis.
A number of theories of pathogenesis of entrapment neuropathy, due to repeated loading, have been proposed and these theories are being actively explored with animal models. Tubes placed loosely around peripheral nerves cause delayed onset, chronic pain and changes in nerve morphology including nerve sprouting. Balloons placed around or adjacent to the nerve and inflated to low pressures, rapid...
متن کاملReappraising entrapment neuropathies--mechanisms, diagnosis and management.
The diagnosis of entrapment neuropathies can be difficult because symptoms and signs often do not follow textbook descriptions and vary significantly between patients with the same diagnosis. Signs and symptoms which spread outside of the innervation territory of the affected nerve or nerve root are common. This Masterclass provides insight into relevant mechanisms that may account for this ext...
