Genitofemoral neuralgia : adding to the burden of chronic vulvar pain [PDF]

, 2015
The vulva is a particularly common locus of chronic pain with neuropathic characteristics that occurs in women of any age, though most women with neuropathic type chronic vulvar pain will remain undiagnosed even following multiple physician visits. Here,

The Role of Ultrasound across the Continuum of Care for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common upper limb entrapment neuropathy and a leading cause of pain, functional impairment, and surgical referral. This article demonstrates the central role of ultrasound (US) across the continuum of CTS care, both for confirming the CTS diagnosis and for guiding treatments ranging from perineural injections to

Superficial brachial artery: a possible cause for idiopathic median nerve entrapment neuropathy.

Folia Morphologica, 2017
Nerve entrapment syndromes occur because of anatomic constraints at specific locations in both upper and lower limbs. Anatomical locations prone to nerve entrapment syndromes include sites where a nerve courses through fibro-osseous or fibromuscular ...

Nerve Ultrasound in Patients With Friedreich Ataxia

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Nerve enlargement has been reported in patients with Friedreich ataxia (FRDA). The underlying cause remains unclear, and both inflammatory processes and dysmyelination have been suggested as potential mechanisms. This study was aimed at assessing nerve morphology with high‐resolution ultrasound, to identify and describe ...

Combined Use of EMG and Muscle Ultrasound for the Evaluation of Scapular Winging

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Scapular winging occurs as an abnormal protrusion of the scapula due to nerve injury, muscle weakness, bone, or joint pathology. The main muscular stabilizers of the scapula include the serratus anterior, trapezius, rhomboid major and minor, levator scapulae, and pectoralis minor.

Can testing of six individual muscles represent a screening approach to upper limb neuropathic conditions? [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: It has previously been demonstrated that an extensive upper limb neurological examination of individual muscle function, sensation in homonymous innervated territories, and nerve trunk allodynia is reliable and that the outcome reflects ...

Ultrasonographic evaluation of ulnar innervated muscles in ulnar neuropathy at the elbow

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Quantitative muscle ultrasound (qMUS) provides morphological measurements that can support clinical observation of muscle atrophy and weakness. As the use of qMUS continues to expand, and its potential for broader implementation in neuromuscular evaluation grows, there is a clear need for further validation, particularly in ...
