Arthroscopic Decompression of Greater Trochanteric Sciatic Nerve Impingement
Therapeutic extra-articular hip endoscopy is an effective treatment of greater trochanteric sciatic nerve impingement. We describe in detail technical pearls of the procedure including positioning, portal placement, and steps to obtaining adequate decompression while avoiding iatrogenic nerve injury.
متن کاملArthroscopic Transcapsular Axillary Nerve Decompression
Symptomatic axillary nerve compression can result in debilitating pain and weakness that can result in decreased athletic performance. If a trial of nonoperative treatment is not successful, surgical intervention may be required. Open surgical techniques have provided satisfactory outcomes in small cohorts of patients. Recent advancements in surgical technique have provided the ability to perfo...
متن کاملA Shortcut to Arthroscopic Suprascapular Nerve Decompression at the Suprascapular Notch: Arthroscopic Landmarks and Surgical Technique
Arthroscopic suprascapular nerve decompression at the suprascapular notch is a technically demanding surgical procedure with a steep learning curve. The aim of this Technical Note is to describe important pearls for an arthroscopic decompression of the suprascapular nerve relying on the palpation of the coracoclavicular ligaments before starting the arthroscopic visualization. This reduces the ...
متن کاملVariations in the high division of the sciatic nerve and relationship between the sciatic nerve and the piriformis.
OBJECTIVE The sciatic nerve (SN) separates into its branches, the tibial and common fibular nerves, outside the pelvis. However, it may rarely be separated within the pelvis. In such cases, the tibial nerve and the common fibular nerve may leave the pelvis through different routes. These variations may cause nerve compressions under other anatomic structures, resulting in non-discogenic sciatic...
متن کاملSuprascapular Nerve Entrapment: Technique for Arthroscopic Release
Suprascapular neuropathy can be caused by a variety of anatomic and pathologic entities as the nerve courses from the brachial plexus through the suprascapular and spinoglenoid notches to innervate the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles. We describe techniques for arthroscopically accessing the nerve at both the suprascapular and spinoglenoid notches and decompressing structural lesions th...
