Radiation oncologists' response to pundendal entrapment neuropathy.
As radiation oncologists with special interest in urologic malignancy (JA) and radiation-induced late toxicity (RSP), we read the case report of pudendal nerve entrapment by Elahi et al (1) with interest. It was presented as the first reported (index) case of pudendal nerve entrapment syndrome caused by radiotherapy of the prostate, seminal vesicles, and pelvic lymph nodes 2 months earlier. The...
متن کاملEntrapment neuropathy of the sural nerve.
Entrapment neuropathies have been known for many years. The larger peripheral nerve entrapment lesions such as that of the ulnar nerve at the elbow (Paget 1864), carpal tunnel syndrome (Learmonth 1933) and more recently tarsal tunnel syndrome (Keck 1962, Lam 1962) and the entrapment of the radial nerve in the persistent “tennis elbow” (Roles and Maudsley 1972) have all been described.

متن کاملUnusual entrapment neuropathy in a golf player.
To the Editor: The article by Hsu et al. 1 provided a very elegant demonstration of the value of the technique of inching in the localization of focal lesions of motor and sensory axons and the ability of this technique to characterize the nature of the lesion as demyelinating. Whether the demyelination is producing focal ax-onal slowing of conduction, fiber blocking, or both may also be demons...
متن کاملMicrosurgical Decompression for Peroneal Nerve Entrapment Neuropathy
Peroneal nerve entrapment neuropathy (PNEN) is one cause of numbness and pain in the lateral lower thigh and instep, and of motor weakness of the extensors of the toes and ankle. We report a less invasive surgical procedure performed under local anesthesia to treat PNEN and our preliminary outcomes. We treated 22 patients (33 legs), 7 men and 15 women, whose average age was 66 years. The mean p...
متن کاملEntrapment neuropathy about the foot and ankle: an update.
Occurrences of entrapment neuropathies of the lower extremity are relatively infrequent; therefore, these conditions may be underappreciated and difficult to diagnose. Understanding the anatomy of the peripheral nerves and their potential entrapment sites is essential. A detailed physical examination and judicious use of imaging modalities are also vital when establishing a diagnosis. Once an a...
