Peripheral nerve disorders are comprising one of the major clinical topics in neuromusculoskeletal disorders. Sharp nerve injuries, chronic entrapment syndromes, and peripheral neuropathic processes can be classified in this common medical topic. Different aspects of these disorders including anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, injury mechanisms, and different diagnostic and management methods need to be addressed when discussing this topic. The goal of preparing this book was to gather such pertinent chapters to cover these aspects.

Featured as a single volume, this is a comprehensive guide to possible nerve entrapment syndromes and their management. Each chapter covers a single nerve, or group of closely related nerves, and goes over the clinical presentation, anatomy, physical exam, differential diagnosis, contributing factors, injection techniques, neurolytic/surgical techniques, treatments of perpetuating factors, and complications. Nerve entrapments can occur throughout the body and cause headaches, chest pain, abdominal pain, pelvic pain, low back pain, and upper and lower extremity pain. As an example, one of the most common forms of nerve entrapment syndrome, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, affects roughly 1 in 20 people in the United States, and is only one of several types of entrapment syndromes possible for the median nerve. Chapters are also extensively illustrated and include 3D anatomical images. The additional online material enhances the book with more than 50 videos - at least 2 for each nerve. This enables readers to easily navigate the book. In addition to a conventional index it includes a “Pain Problems Index” for searching by symptom. Peripheral Nerve Entrapments: Clinical Diagnosis and Management is a long-needed resource for pain physicians, emergency room physicians, and neurologists.

4 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW! "The book can serve as an introduction, a refresher, or a supplement, depending on the experience and background of the reader. The authors are well regarded for their teaching, research, and clinical abilities....The book covers basic and advanced regional anesthesia techniques. It includes mostly classic approaches, but also offers some novel techniques for both single shot and continuous nerve blockade. The illustrations are superb, especially those that reveal the underlying structures, providing an almost three-dimensional view of the relevant anatomy."--Doody's Review Service Authored by the world's leading authorities, this is an authoritative, full-color instructional manual for mastering nerve block techniques. Beautifully illustrated with 350 color illustrations, including 175 clinical photographs of actual patients.
