Large schwannoma of the sciatic nerve [PDF]
BMJ Case Reports, 2016 A 40-year-old woman was referred with an 8-month history of fullness of the right posterior thigh. This was associated with pain, primarily on sitting and occasional radicular pain down the ipsilateral leg. On examination a mobile, firm lump was identified that was tender to palpate and which also elicited a shooting pain down the leg on examination ...

Examining the mechanical influences upon the sciatic nerve at the sciatic nerve-hamstring muscle interface during active and passive knee extension [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Ultrasound imaging has been used to examine movement of the peripheral nervous system in response to normal body movements and therapeutic exercises, such as neural mobilisation.

The potential role of sciatic nerve stiffness in the limitation of maximal ankle range of motion
Scientific Reports, 2018 It is a long held belief that maximal joint range of motion (ROM) is restricted by muscle tension. However, it exists indirect evidence suggesting that this assumption may not hold true for some joint configurations where non-muscular structures, such as

Nlrp6 promotes recovery after peripheral nerve injury independently of inflammasomes [PDF]
, 2015 Background: NOD-like receptors (Nlrs) are key regulators of immune responses during infection and autoimmunity. A subset of Nlrs assembles inflammasomes, molecular platforms that are activated in response to endogenous danger and microbial ligands and ...

Effect of PEA-OXA on neuropathic pain and functional recovery after sciatic nerve crush
Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2018 Animal models of sciatic nerve injury are commonly used to study neuropathic pain as well as axon regeneration. Inflammation/immune response at the site of nerve lesion is known to be an essential trigger of the pathological changes that have a critical ...

Cement burn of the sciatic nerve [PDF]
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1992 We present the case of a 63-year-old woman who sustained an acrylic cement burn of the sciatic nerve at hip replacement. She was treated by resection of the damaged segment and grafting. Electron microscopy showed that the nerve was nearly normal 1 cm from the cement margin indicating that this is a safe level for resection.

Sciatic Nerve Palsy following Curved Periacetabular Osteotomy
Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2020 Curved periacetabular osteotomy (CPO) is used for the treatment of dysplastic hips. Previous studies have reported satisfying outcomes and low rate of severe complications associated with this procedure; however, no case of postoperative sciatic nerve ...
