Median mononeuropathy is common, with carpal tunnel syndrome the most frequently encountered acquired mononeuropathy in clinical practice. However, other disorders of the median nerve and many known anatomical variants can lead to misdiagnosis and unexpected surgical complications if their presence is not correctly identified. A number of inherited and acquired disorders can affect the median nerve proximal to the wrist, alone or accompanied by other affected peripheral nerves. Recognizing other disorders that can masquerade as median mononeuropathies can avoid misdiagnosis and misguided management. This chapter explores median nerve anatomical variants, disorders, and lesions, emphasizing the need for careful examination and electrodiagnostic study in the localization of median neuropathy.
期刊介绍:
The Handbook of Clinical Neurology (HCN) was originally conceived and edited by Pierre Vinken and George Bruyn as a prestigious, multivolume reference work that would cover all the disorders encountered by clinicians and researchers engaged in neurology and allied fields. The first series of the Handbook (Volumes 1-44) was published between 1968 and 1982 and was followed by a second series (Volumes 45-78), guided by the same editors, which concluded in 2002. By that time, the Handbook had come to represent one of the largest scientific works ever published. In 2002, Professors Michael J. Aminoff, François Boller, and Dick F. Swaab took on the responsibility of supervising the third (current) series, the first volumes of which published in 2003. They have designed this series to encompass both clinical neurology and also the basic and clinical neurosciences that are its underpinning. Given the enormity and complexity of the accumulating literature, it is almost impossible to keep abreast of developments in the field, thus providing the raison d''être for the series. The series will thus appeal to clinicians and investigators alike, providing to each an added dimension. Now, more than 140 volumes after it began, the Handbook of Clinical Neurology series has an unparalleled reputation for providing the latest information on fundamental research on the operation of the nervous system in health and disease, comprehensive clinical information on neurological and related disorders, and up-to-date treatment protocols.
