Anatomical, Clinical and Electrical Observations in Piriformis Syndrome
BACKGROUND We provided clinical and electrical descriptions of the piriformis syndrome, contributing to better understanding of the pathogenesis and further diagnostic criteria. METHODS Between 3550 patients complaining of sciatica, we concluded 26 cases of piriformis syndrome, 15 females, 11 males, mean age 35.37 year-old. We operated 9 patients, 2 to 19 years after the onset of symptoms, 5 ...
متن کاملBlepharoclonus: anatomical localization and etiological consideration..
Blepharoclonus refers to myoclonic rhythmic eyelid closure. This is an extremely rare abnormal movement of the eyelids. The symptom has an ill-defned anatomical localization and hypothesized etiologies are diverse. We describe a 42 year-old woman with known poorly controlled hypertension (HTN) who presented with a three-week history ofataxia, dysmetria, and uncontrolled eyelid twitching. The bi...
متن کاملA Rare Anatomical Variation of Sciatic Nerve and its Relationship with Piriformis Muscle
Sciatic nerve is the thickest nerve of the body which is formed by ventral branches of L4, L5, S1, S2 and S3 of spinal nerves as a part of sacral plexus in pelvis. It leaves the pelvis via the greater sciatic foramen below piriformis muscle and descends between the greater trochanter and ischial tuberosity, along the back of the thigh and dividing into the tibial and common peroneal (fibular) n...
متن کاملAnatomical evaluation of the tibial nerve within the popliteal fossa.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the inter-hamstring position (medial to lateral intertendinous position) of the tibial nerve within the popliteal fossa. A descriptive cadaver model study was performed to permit controlled and direct measures of the tibial nerve. Fourteen embalmed lower extremities (8 left, 6 right) from nine cadavers (4 males, 5 females; 84.3 +/- 10.7 years of age) we...
متن کاملPIRIFORMIS SYNDROME The Piriformis Syndrome Is Overdiagnosed
Damage to the Proximal Sciatic Nerve by Lesions in the Vicinity of the Piriformis Muscle. Lesions of the proximal sciatic nerve in the area of the sciatic notch may occur from endometriosis, tumors, hematomas, fibrosis, aneurysms, false aneurysms, or arteriovenous malformations. Some authors have diagnosed such patients as having PS. Since the piriformis muscle plays no role in these situations...
