Entrapment neuropathies

MUDr. Tomáš Vodvářka
Neurologická ambulance, Ostrava-Mariánské Hory

Entrapment neuropathies are the specific group of chronic mononeuropathies, where the narrow anatomical space plays the pricipal role of the pathogenesis. The main clinical features, etiology and pathogenesis of the most envolved nerves of upper and lower extremities are widely described. The principles of clinical investigations and the basal methods of electrodiagnosis are mentioned in the first part of the article. The method of therapy is mentioned only partly.

Keywords: Key words: entrapment neuropathy, clinical investigation of entrapment neuropathy, electrodiagnosis.
