하지 포착신경병의 전기진단학적 접근 = Electrodiagnostic Approach to Nerve Entrapment Syndrome of the Lower Extremity

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The major nerves of the lower extremities are sciatic, femoral, obturator, lateral femoral cutaneous, superior gluteal and inferior gluteal nerves. These nerves are often entrapped at areas of anatomic restriction by various causes including trauma, compression and surgical/medical procedures. A well-designed electrodiagnostic study can help us localize a nerve lesion, assess severity and evaluate for the differential diagnosis of other peripheral nerve lesions including plexopathy or radiculopathy.
