Optic nerve compression results in progressive, and often painless, monocular vision loss. In this chapter, we review the clinical signs and common causes of compressive optic neuropathy. We discuss in more detail the imaging characteristics and management of optic nerve sheath meningioma.

Optic nerve compression results in progressive, and often painless, vision loss. In this chapter, we begin by reviewing the clinical features of anterior and posterior compressive optic neuropathy. We next review the common causes of compressive optic neuropathy, which include orbital tumors (e.g., optic nerve sheath meningioma, optic glioma, and ...

Ulnar Compressive Neuropathies
2017There are three different neuropathies defined by where the ulnar nerve is compressed that are much less common than cubital tunnel. Nerve conduction is used to confirm diagnosis of cubital tunnel, defined as symptomatic ulnar nerve dysfunction at the level of the elbow; this is treated either nonoperatively or operatively depending on severity.

Compression and entrapment neuropathies
2013Peripheral nerve entrapments are frequent. They usually appear in anatomical tunnels such as the carpal tunnel. Nerve compressions may be due to external pressure such as the fibular nerve at the fibular head. Malignant or benign tumors may also damage the nerve.

Acute vs. chronic compressive neuropathy
Muscle & Nerve, 1984AbstractStudies of the management of acute and chronic compressive peripheral neuropathies have not kept pace with advances in our understanding of the pathophsiology of these disorders. In this review, the pathophysiological differences between acute and chronic compressive neuropathy are reviewed from experimental models as well as from clinical ...

Compressive radial neuropathies.
Instructional course lectures, 2000Radial neuropathy can have one of several clinical presentations, depending on the level of compression: high radial nerve palsy, PIN palsy, radial tunnel syndrome, and Wartenberg's syndrome. Elucidating the history and progression of symptoms with a physical examination directed at testing individual muscles will determine the approximate anatomic ...

Postoperative Compressive Neuropathies-Reply
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982In Reply.— The author's comments regarding a surgical intervention as treatment for postoperative, compressive neuropathies are well taken. In the time interval since our work was originally submitted, we have tried to follow a more aggressive treatment plan at the urging of our surgeons. They recommend surgical decompression, or transposition, of the

Other Compressive Neuropathies
2018Although carpal tunnel syndrome (median nerve compression at the wrist) and cubital tunnel syndrome (ulnar nerve compression at the elbow) represent the vast majority of compressive neuropathies of the upper extremity, there are a host of other compression neuropathies that may affect the shoulder, upper arm, forearm, wrist, and hand.
