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 ...

Common Compression Neuropathies
Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 2021Compression neuropathies, also known as entrapment neuropathies, are common neurologic conditions seen in medicine. These often are due to mechanical injury, either compression or stretch of the affected nerve, and initially result in focal demyelinating changes. If left untreated, secondary axonal injury and lasting disability can result.

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-

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, 2003Entrapment 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.

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 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, 1982To 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
