Most of the publications about the surgical treatment of pudendal neuropathy are only interested by pain (1,2). This point of view is too reducing for a perineologist (3,4). Indeed, the compression or the stretch of one or the two pudendal nerves can provoke, besides perineodynia (pain) classically worse in seated position, proctalgia fugax, vulvodynia, urinary incontinence, anal incontinence o...

Sciatic nerve injury after stretching exercise is uncommon. We report a case of an 18-year-old female trained dancer who developed sciatic neuropathy primarily involving the tibial division after routine stretching exercise. The patient presented with dysesthesia and weakness of the right foot during dorsiflexion and plantarflexion. The mechanism of sciatic nerve injury could be thought as hype...

Suprascapular Nerve Entrapment (SSNE) is an acquired neuropathy secondary to compression of suprascapular nerve in the Suprascapular Notch (SSN). Complete ossification of superior transverse scapular ligament may be a cause for suprascapular nerve entrapment. The absence of suprascapular notch is not very common condition, though its prevalence was quoted by Indian authors to be varying from 1....

Ulnar nerve compression at wrist is manifested either pathologically due to ganglia or neoplasms, or anatomically by the presence of accessory muscles in the hypothenar region. Accessory abductor digiti minimi muscle is an additional muscle encountered rarely in the wrist; presence of which causes high risk of ulnar neuropathy. We report here a case of unilateral accessory abductor digiti minim...

Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN) types I and III and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) in developed countries are the most frequent causes of enlargement of peripheral nerves, “hypertrophic neuropathy”, with clinically palpable thickened nerves, visible on MRI. They may even be the cause of spinal cord compression. 8 We report on a patient who develo...

An acetabular paralabral cyst is a benign soft tissue cyst usually seen in association with a tear of the acetabular labrum. Acetabular paralabral cysts are often the cause of joint pain, but they rarely cause compression of the adjacent neurovascular structures. We present a case of a 63-year-old male patient who had paresis and atrophy of right hip adductor muscles. Right obturator neuropathy...

The international association for the study of pain defines neuropathic pain as pain resulting from a lesion or disease in the central or peripheral nervous system.[1‐3] This categorization is broad and includes a range of etiologies such as trauma, lesions of the central nervous system, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, multiple sclerosis, and herpetic nerve lesions. When the upper limb is invol...

It is not common for an isolated visual symptom to be the first indication of an aneurysm compressing the optic nerve. The compression can lead to blindness, and a recovery from the blindness is rare. We report a female with a left painless optic neuropathy caused by an unruptured anterior cerebral artery aneurysm. The patient had a temporal hemianopic visual field defect, which progressed to b...

INTRODUCTION Suprascapular neuropathy is an uncommon cause of shoulder pain and weakness and therefore is frequently misdiagnosed. As a consequence, misdiagnosis can include inappropriate conservative treatment or unsuccessful surgical procedure. CASE PRESENTATION A rare case is reported of a 54-year-old woman who suffered from suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome. The patient was subjecte...
