چکیده

A muscle, 7.5 c.m. long and 1.4 c.m. wide at its thickest part lay just inferior to the piriformis muscle on both sides of the lower limb. It was not part of the piriformis muscle as it originated from the lower margin of the greater sciatic notch and inserted into the greater trochanter of femur just posterior to the piriformis. (Piriformis muscle originated from the pelvis surface of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th sacral pedicles).

Magnetic resonance neurography in extraspinal sciatica.

BACKGROUND Sciatica without evidence of lumbosacral root compression is often attributed to piriformis syndrome. However, specific diagnostic tools have not been available to demonstrate sciatic nerve entrapment by the piriformis muscle. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of magnetic resonance (MR) neurography in identifying abnormalities of the sciatic nerve in patients with unexplained sciatica....
