Abstract:
Not every case of neurologically based pelvic/genital numbness/incontinence is due to cauda equina syndrome. Pelvic pain, incontinence, and sexual dysfunction can result from treatable peripheral nerve injury or entrapment affecting the pudendal nerves or impar ganglion. Learning the signs, physical exam findings, tests, and surgical options greatly expands a neurosurgeon’s range. The pudendal nerve and nerve to the obturator internus muscle arise after S2, S3, and S4 spinal nerves traverse the piriformis muscle. They exit the sciatic notch with the sciatic nerve but then re-enter the pelvis, where the pudendal nerve then gives off bladder, rectal, and genital branches.

Abstract:
In this chapter, the pathological classification of nerve damage using the Sunderland classification is described. The neurophysiological findings that allow distinction between neurapraxia, axonotmesis, and neurotmesis are highlighted. Nerve entrapment syndromes involving the upper and lower limb are discussed according to the nerve involved, with particular emphasis on those commonly seen in children. In the upper limb, median, ulnar, and radial nerve entrapments are described with particular emphasis on the carpal tunnel syndrome in mucopolysaccharidosis. Also mentioned here are the thoracic outlet syndrome and neuralgic amyotrophy. In the leg, femoral nerve and sciatic nerve syndromes are discussed with particular emphasis on the differing aetiologies of sciatic nerve palsy in children.

Abstract:
Sciatic nerve injury is a relatively uncommon lower extremity mononeuropathy. The various etiologies of sciatic neuropathies are highlighted in this case. The clinical manifestations and diagnosis include distinguishing foot drop due to sciatic neuropathy from peroneal (fibular) neuropathy across the fibular neck, L5 radiculopathy, and lumbosacral plexopathy. The electrodiagnostic features of sciatic nerve lesion are separated from those of foot drop due to other peripheral nerve causes. In contrast to sciatic nerve injury, the piriformis syndrome is mostly a painful syndrome with no or minimal sensory or motor deficits. The clinical manifestations of piriformis syndrome and controversies surrounding this syndrome completes the discussion in this case.

Abstract:
Piriformis syndrome is an entrapment neuropathy caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve as it courses in proximity to the piriformis muscle. Conservative treatment modalities for piriformis syndrome include the use of anti-inflammatory analgesic medications or muscle relaxants. Physical therapy is often employed to correct the abnormal pelvic biomechanics and focus on stretching the piriformis muscle. Prior to proceeding with invasive surgical approaches, this chapter advocates the use of piriformis muscle injection. The technique both confirms the diagnosis and offers therapeutic value while avoiding the risks, expense, and potential adverse outcomes associated with surgical interventions. A combined fluoroscopic and nerve stimulator guided technique is recommended to identify bony landmarks, verify the perisciatic location, confirm intramuscular spread of the injectate, and avoid intravascular injection of particulate steroid. Transient sciatic nerve block caused by spillover of the local anesthetic administered into the piriformis muscle is a common complication.

Abstract:
Lower limb nerve blocks gained popularity with the introduction of better nerve localization techniques such as peripheral nerve stimulation and ultrasound. A combination of lower limb peripheral nerve blocks can provide anaesthesia and analgesia of the entire lower limb. Lower limb blocks, as compared to central neuraxial blocks, do not affect blood pressure, can be used in sick patients, provide longer-lasting analgesia, avoid the risk of epidural haematoma or urinary retention, provide better patient satisfaction, and have acceptable success rates in experienced hands. Detailed knowledge of the relevant anatomy is essential before performing any nerve blocks in the lower limb as the nerve plexuses and the peripheral nerves are deep and obscured by bony structures and large muscles. The lumbosacral plexus provides sensory and motor innervation to the superficial tissues, muscles, and bones of the lower limb. This chapter covers different approaches and techniques for lower limb blocks, that is, the lumbar plexus, femoral nerve, fascia iliaca, saphenous nerve, sciatic nerve, popliteal nerve, ankle block, forefoot block, and the intra-articular infusion of local anaesthetics. Both peripheral nerve stimulator- and ultrasound-guided approaches are discussed. The use of ultrasound guidance is suggested as it helps in reducing the dose of local anaesthetic required and can ensure circumferential spread of local anaesthetic around peripheral nerves, which hastens the onset of block and improves success rate.

Abstract:
Sciatic neuropathy presents with buttock pain worsened by sitting on the affected side and associated with ankle and knee extension weakness. Electrodiagnostic evaluation will help to distinguish it from peroneal or tibial mononeuropathies, lumbosacral plexopathy, or lumbosacral radiculopathy. It can be difficult to distinguish from a peroneal mononeuropathy due to the preferential involvement of the peroneal division of the sciatic nerve. EMG study of the short head of the biceps femoris allows for distinction between these entities. Long-term outcome and prognosis studies are sparse although Preservation of distal lower-extremity strength may be a significant predictor earlier and/or better clinical recovery.

Abstract:
Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) injections are valuable tools for diagnosing the source of low back pain and selecting patients for a radiofrequency ablation procedure, which tends to provide long-term relief for low back pain associated with SIJ dysfunction. Sacroiliac joint injections are generally safe and well-tolerated procedures. The most common complication is initial pain from distension of the joint capsule with contrast and local anesthetic. Despite adequate intra-articular needle placement, extravasation of local anesthetic may diffuse to lumbosacral nerve roots and/or the sciatic nerve, causing transient numbness and/or weakness. This chapter reviews the advantages of fluoroscopically guided SIJ injections as well as the step-by-step technique and how to avoid complications.

Abstract:
This chapter describes the clinical anatomy relevant to the lower extremities and outlines the tools and techniques used to perform lower extremity ultrasound-guided nerve blocks. The nerve blocks described here include the femoral, lateral femoral cutaneous, adductor canal (selective femoral), saphenous, obturator, lumbar plexus, sciatic (proximal, anterior, and popliteal approaches), (iPACK) and ankle blocks. For each nerve block, the indications, risks, and benefits of the varying approaches are described in detail. The chapter includes step-by-step instructions with illustrations, including cadaver dissections, to allow the operator to perform clinically effective and safe ultrasound-guided lower extremity regional anesthesia. At the conclusion of each block description, a “Pearls” segment highlights important tips gleaned from our clinical experience. This chapter provides the practitioner with thorough instruction and knowledge allowing optimal delivery of regional anesthetic for any lower extremity surgery or trauma.

Abstract:
Peroneal (fibular) neuropathy is the most common entrapment/compressive mononeuropathy in the lower extremity, often presenting with foot drop and numbness. The majority of the lesions are across the fibular neck, but more proximal and distal lesions exist. This case presents the clinical and electrodiagnostic findings in peroneal neuropathy and discusses in detail the differential diagnoses of foot drop. It highlights the importance of distinguishing peroneal nerve lesions from L5 radiculopathy, lumbar plexopathy, and sciatic neuropathy. Causes of acute and subacute peroneal mononeuropathies are emphasized.

Abstract:
The landmark paper discussed in this chapter is ‘A peripheral mononeuropathy in rat that produces disorders of pain sensation like those seen in man’, published by Bennett and Xie in 1988. This paper, in which the unilateral sciatic nerve chronic constriction injury (CCI) model was first presented, is one of the earliest and most comprehensive descriptions of a specific animal paradigm that was designed to model human neuropathic pain. The authors realized that human neuropathic pain rarely involves nerve transection but instead involves evoked changes in damaged and preserved nerve fibres. Furthermore, they systematically applied a barrage of sensory testing that demonstrated quantifiable hyperalgesia and cold allodynia reflecting some of the clinical observations of human neuropathic pain phenotype. CCI provided a high-quality template for the development of neuropathic pain models that impelled the subsequent development of other animal models striving to replicate the human condition faithfully and accurately.

Abstract:
The landmark paper discussed in this chapter is ‘Identification of the α‎2-δ‎-1 subunit of voltage-dependent calcium channels as a molecular target for pain mediating the analgesic actions of pregabalin’, published by Field et al. in 2006. In this seminal paper, Field et al. demonstrated that the anti-allodynic effect of pregabalin is related to its binding to the α‎2δ‎-1 subunit of the voltage-gated calcium channel. In transgenic mice lacking this subunit, pregabalin had no effect on allodynia induced by sciatic nerve ligation, whereas, in wild-type mice, there was a substantial anti-allodynic response. This discovery was well received by the scientific community and was considered to conclusively establish the mechanism of action of pregabalin, which has remarkably similar properties to gabapentin but with increased potency and oral absorption. This exciting result acted as an impetus for further studies on the role of the subunit in the development and maintenance of neuropathic pain.

Abstract:
This clinically based, comprehensive textbook provides a detailed description of the most useful nerve blocks in ultrasound guided regional anesthesia. Four sections cover Basic Principles (including an appendix, “What Block for What Surgery?), Upper Limb Blocks, Lower Limb Blocks, and Trunk and Spine Blocks. The initial chapter provides a review of ultrasound physics that allows the practitioner to understand how to optimize the ultrasound machine to produce the best ultrasound images possible. This foundation, along with the clinical tips and step-by-step techniques for in-plane and out-of-plane needle guidance, make this instructive text useful for practitioners at all levels. The first chapter also includes seven Keys to Ultrasound Success and concludes with a clinical summary of which blocks to perform for specific surgeries or trauma situations. The specific blocks covered in the remaining chapters range from the classic femoral, interscalene, popliteal sciatic, and axillary blocks to more novel blocks such as the adductor canal, selective suprascapular, quadratus lumborum, and PECS blocks. Each block description includes a review of clinical anatomy, indications, positioning, and a step-by-step approach to ultrasound imaging and needle insertion. Ultrasound images are provided in both an unedited, clean version and a companion version that is clearly labeled, allowing the reader to compare the images side by side. Throughout the book, comprehensive photographs of ultrasound images, cadaver dissections, and patient positioning are provided, with vibrant, colorful annotations that significantly add to the clarity of instruction provided.
