Compression Neuropathies

Seminars in Neurology, 1987
Nerve compression, frequently from entrapment at specific anatomic locations, is a common clinical entity, especially in patients with predisposing occupations or with certain medical disorders. It should be pointed out that a nerve can be compressed at more than one level. Early recognition and treatment are the most effective means of preventing long-

Compression Neuropathy

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1982
Some of the experimental, pathologic, and clinical features of extremity compression are reviewed with special reference to vulnerability of peripheral nerves to compressive forces at specific anatomic locations. Attention is directed toward syndromes resulting from mechanical factors, and it should be pointed out that a nerve can be compressed at more

Entrapment and compressive neuropathies

Medical Clinics of North America, 2003
Entrapment and compressive neuropathies of the upper and lower extremities are frequently encountered disorders in the office. Certain clinical clues in the history and examination, along with electrodiagnostic testing and imaging studies, often suggest the correct diagnosis.

Compression neuropathies

2021
Abstract Nerve compression disorders affect nerve trunks, particularly in the upper extremity where carpal tunnel syndrome (median nerve compression at the wrist) is the most common and ulnar nerve compression the second most common disorder.

Compression Neuropathies

DeckerMed Plastic Surgery, 2020
Compression neuropathies result from entrapment at specific anatomic locations. They are a common clinical problem, particularly in the upper extremity, where a patient’s underlying medical conditions can affect the likelihood of symptoms. Early recognition from the clinical history and a detailed examination, including provocative maneuvers, combined ...

Postoperative Compressive Neuropathies

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982
To the Editor.— The development of postoperative compressive neuropathies—ulnar, radial, and peroneal—in our series was related not only to prolonged compression of several hours, but also, in every instance, to a chronic, dense neuroma in continuity. There is no doubt that the short-term compression was the proximate cause of the neuropathy but, from

Proximal Radial Compression Neuropathy

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2004
Proximal radial nerve compression occurs infrequently and is diagnosed successfully even less frequently. A large clinical series of patients with proximal radial nerve compression neuropathy was reviewed to determine better the common symptoms, physical findings, and electrodiagnostic findings, and to identify the predictors of better or worse outcome

An Unusual Compressive Neuropathy

Archives of Neurology, 1984
Unfortunately, compressive neuropathies involving both upper and lower limbs still occur as a result of positioning during surgery. These cases are both underdocumented and frequently denied (J.F.A., unpublished data, 1980). We describe a patient with such a compressive neuropathy that resulted from unusual positioning during surgery. REPORT OF A CASE

Compressive Optic Neuropathy

2021
Compressive optic neuropathy occurs when an extrinsic force acts upon the optic nerve. Compression may be secondary to inflammatory, infectious, vascular, traumatic, or neoplastic lesions. Mass effect on the optic nerve compromises optic nerve axoplasmic and blood flow, leading to decreased color vision and visual acuity, visual field defects, and ...

Uncommon Upper Extremity Compression Neuropathies

Hand Clinics, 2013
Hand surgeons routinely treat carpal and cubital tunnel syndromes, which are the most common upper extremity nerve compression syndromes. However, more infrequent nerve compression syndromes of the upper extremity may be encountered. Because they are unusual, the diagnosis of these nerve compression syndromes is often missed or delayed.
