Sciatic and peroneal nerve injuries

Microsurgery, 2006
AbstractIn the past, the attitude toward surgical repair of sciatic and peroneal nerve lesions was excessively pessimistic. Refinements of microsurgical technique, nerve conduction studies, and the establishment of indications and optimal timings for surgical interventions have led to significant improvements in outcomes, making repair worthwhile in ...

Giant schwannomas of the sciatic nerve [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2017
We report a very rare case of giant schwannomas of the sciatic nerve in a 39-year-old woman who presented with increasing swelling and discomfort in the posterior aspect of her right thigh. We demonstrate that even with such large tumours, surgical excision could be successfully carried out to resolve all symptoms while causing no permanent nerve ...

Glial βii spectrin contributes to paranode formation and maintenance [PDF]

, 2018
Action potential conduction along myelinated axons depends on high densities of voltage-gated Na channels at the nodes of Ranvier. Flanking each node, paranodal junctions (paranodes) are formed between axons and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous ...

Deep gluteal space problems: piriformis syndrome, ischiofemoral impingement and sciatic nerve release.

Muscles Ligaments and Tendons Journal, 2016
BACKGROUND Deep gluteal syndrome (DGS) is an underdiagnosed entity characterized by pain and/or dysesthesias in the buttock area, hip or posterior thigh and/or radicular pain due to a non-discogenic sciatic nerve entrapment in the subgluteal space ...

A Targeted Redox‐Active Dual‐Action Pt(IV)‐Mn(II) Prodrug Displays Enhanced In Vivo Anticancer Activity

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A new oxaliplatin‐based Pt(IV) prodrug bearing a Mn(II) superoxide dismutase mimic is synthesized and studied, in vitro and in vivo, in the context of colorectal cancer. Encapsulation of this prodrug in an easy‐to‐implement PEGylated micelle formulation demonstrated the highest in vivo anticancer activity among all the tested conditions, supporting the

Continuous sciatic nerve block [PDF]

Anaesthesia, 1984
SummaryA technique of continuous sciatic nerve block is described. The method was used to relieve pain from ischaemic gangrene of the foot for 2 days before below‐knee amputation and, combined with a continuous inguinal paravascular block, to provide regional anaesthesia both for the surgery and for the first 2 postoperative days.

Porous Decellularized Nerve Grafts Facilitate Recellularization and Nerve Regeneration in a Rat Model of Critical Long‐Gap Peripheral Nerve Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A decellularized nerve graft (DNG) is modified to generate a porous DNG (PDNG). The PDNG is used to repair a 30‐mm peripheral nerve injury (PNI) defect, and is compared with isograft, serving as the standard, and DNG, a widely used alternative. The result shows that PDNG facilitated nerve regeneration in long‐gap PNI, evidenced by better‐aligned axonal

Neurogenic gluteus medius and minimus muscle atrophy with Trendelenburg's sign after a displaced acetabular fracture of the posterior column – A case report

Trauma Case Reports, 2022
Traumatic or iatrogenic sciatic nerve injury, but not superior gluteal nerve injury, is a well described complication after acetabular fractures. Most often, sciatic nerve injuries occur in fractures involving the posterior column/wall with a hip ...

TRAUMATIC INTERRUPTION OF SCIATIC NERVES [PDF]

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1915
The patient whose photograph is shown herewith was a healthy youth (Canton Hospital No. 297, 1914) who fell from a tree a year before admission, landing in a half-sitting, half-lying posture, wounding the tissues overlying the ischial tuberosities. He was unable to walk for several months on account of weakness in the lower limbs.
