Entrapment neuropathy and beyond [PDF]

The Journal of Physiology, 2010
Entrapment neuropathies, including carpal tunnel syndrome, are some of the most common neurological disorders. The old notion has been that they result from focal compression of a nerve, which first produces a local demyelination through intussusceptions of the myelin sheath, and then produces Wallerian degeneration by disruption of the nerve.

Most Frequent Compressive Limb Neuropathies: A Literature Review

Brazilian Neurosurgery, 2023
Peripheral nerve injuries vary in length and severity, and they can occur secondary to trauma, compression and ischemia, leading to both motor and sensory neurological deficits. Nerve compression can occur in both the upper and lower limbs.

New Insights Into the Anconeus Epitrochlearis Muscle and Its Relationship to the Ulnar Nerve: Anatomical Study

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ulnar neuropathy due to compression at the cubital tunnel is common. However, our understanding of the relationships between this type of nerve compression and the variant anconeus epitrochlearis muscle (AEM) is poorly understood. Therefore, the present anatomical study was performed to better elucidate these relationships.
