Nerve lesions and entrapment neuropathies of the upper limb
Peripheral nerve lesions in the neck, shoulder girdle and upper limb can occur anywhere along the extraspinal extent of the nerve – between the intervertebral foramen and the most distal nerve endings in the extremities. The function of the nerve becomes impaired either as the result of an entrapment phenomenon, or as the outcome of an injury causing bruising or elongation of the nerve tissue. ...
متن کاملEntrapment neuropathies of the upper extremity.
Symptoms of entrapment neuropathies are often intermittent, making the diagnosis a challenge; pain, paresthesias, exertional fatigue, weakness, and atrophy may be present. An accurate, detailed history and physical examination, often after activity, is essential to make an accurate diagnosis. Laboratory, radiographic, and electromyographic studies may be helpful, but are often normal. This arti...
متن کاملEntrapment Neuropathies
Peripheral neuropathy is defined as deranged function and structure of peripheral, motor, sensory, and autonomic neurons, involving either the entire neuron or selected levels. The major categories of peripheral neuropathies are seen in Table 28-1. Because this chapter is concerned with nerve problems seen in the foot that are most amenable to local treatment, only the last four categories are ...
متن کاملEntrapment neuropathies.
Compression neuropathy includes a heterogeneous group of focal neuropathy syndromes related to peripheral nerve compression. Although acute or chronic compression-related injury may occur in essentially any peripheral nerve, certain anatomic considerations may predispose certain nerves to intrinsic or extrinsic compression-related injury. The clinical presentations of specific compression or en...
متن کاملNerve lesions and entrapment neuropathies of the lower limb
The main symptom of pressure on nerves is paraesthesia. Depending on the level of the compression, paraesthesia is accompanied by pain and numbness. The combination of these three symptoms and their interrelation are of importance in localizing the site of compression. Pressure on the distal spinal cord induces painless pins and needles in both feet, soon followed by numbness, incoordination an...
