New York School Of Regional Anesthesia - Sciatic Nerve Block: Posterior Approach In the upper part of its course, the sciatic nerve is situated deep in the major gluteal muscle, and rests first on the posterior surface of the ischium. Once the gluteal twitches disappear, brisk response of the sciatic nerve to stimulation is observed (hamstrings, calf, foot, or toe twitches). As the needle is advanced, twitches of the gluteal muscles are observed first. www.nysora.com /techniques/intermediate/sciatic_post/sciatic_post.html   (2630 words)

Sports Injury Treatments: Running & Endurance Sports Injuries esp. The real problem is often the smaller stabilizing muscles such as the Peroneous Longus and Tibialis Posterior; the flexors and extensors...the everters and inverters, will need to be iced and rehabbed. Muscle injuries to the front of the leg are due to overtrain¬ ing--too many miles before your body has adapted to the load--or too much tempo style hard running.

adductor muscle injuries To reinnervate the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle (abductor), a phrenic nerve graft was anastomosed to the main trunk of the recurrent laryngeal nerve. 20(6):634-9, 1992 Nov-Dec. Abstract Ultrasonography was used in the diagnosis of 36 patients with chronic groin pain localized to the tendons of the rectus abdominis, rectus femoris, adductor muscles, hamstring muscles, and the gluteal muscles.

eMedicine - Snapping Hip Syndrome : Article by Joseph P Garry Originating along the posterior ilium, dorsal surface of the sacrum, and gluteal aponeurosis, the gluteus maximus inserts on the iliotibial tract and gluteal tuberosity of the femur. Subluxation of the iliotibial band over the greater trochanter may occur while the hip extends from a flexed position (in which the iliotibial band lies anterior to the greater trochanter) to a position posterior to the greater trochanter. Snapping hip syndrome may be due to an external cause (eg, snapping of the iliotibial band or gluteus maximus over the greater trochanter) or an internal cause (eg, snapping of the iliopsoas tendon over the iliopectineal eminence, acetabular labral tear, intra-articular loose body). www.emedicine.com /sports/topic123.htm   (1298 words)

Dissector Answers - Hip & Posterior Thigh Predict the functional loss and cutaneous areas affected by a given nerve injury to the hip or posterior thigh region; or conversely, given a functional and/or cutaneous loss, be able to predict which nerve or nerves are involved and the probable level of the injury. The inferior gluteal nerve innervates gluteus maximus, while the superior and inferior gluteal arteries supply it with blood.

Case 997_06 -- Pelvic pseudoaneurysm embolization Gentle hand injections of contrast material showed reflux into the posterior division of the internal iliac artery, so coil embolization of the posterior division was performed to protect the gluteal musculature from further embolization. Selective arteriogram of the right pudendal artery at the conclusion of microcoil/Gelfoam embolization shows stasis of contrast material but no filling of the pseudoaneurysm. As a result, the internal pudendal artery was selectively catheterized with a Tracker-18 catheter and guide wire (Fig. www.scvir.org /members/caseclub/0997/997_06/997_06.htm   (8056 words)
