Nerve Entrapment
•Altered transmission because of mechanical irritation from impingement of an anatomical neighbor
•Pressure-induced segmental injury to a peripheral nerve
due to anatomical structure or pathologic process
-
Entrapment Effects• Pain
• Numbness
• Tingling
• Weakness • Fatiguable • Leads to injury
-
Entrapment Mechanics• Compression
• Constriction
• Overstretching
• Edema
-
Nerve Entrapments• In tunnels: carpal tunnel or tarsal tunnel syndrome
• Between muscles: axillary nerve
• Around blood vessels: occipital nerve
• Across joints: superficial peroneal nerve
• Between bones: Morton’s neuroma
• External compression: boot/cast
• Fascial penetration sites: anterior cutaneous nerve
-
Common Peroneal Nerve• Weak foot extension, winging
• Lateral ankle pain/peroneus tendinitis
• Poor balance (pointe)
• Impingement pain back of ankle
• Limited relevè
• “That’s My Bad Leg”
-
Fascia
•Nerves travel through fascia on pathway to muscular innervation
•Repetitive compression or stretch -> neuroinflammatory response
-> fascial adhesions/constrictions
-
Neural Hydrodissection
• Using solution to free up fascia/scar tissue compressing nerve
-
Hydrodissection Research• Wu 2019/Evers 2018 et al: carpal tunnel/median nerve (TOPS)
• Delzell 2020: Median nerve at pronator tunnel
• Stoddard 2019: Ulnar nerve
• Watanabe 2020: Saphenous nerve
• Burke 2019: Sciatic nerve
• Mulvaney 2011: Lateral femoral cutaneous nerve
-
• Long thoracic
• Dorsal Scapular

• Brachial plexus
• Cervical plexus
• C5-C7 nerve roots
• Greater occipital
Hydrodissected Nerves• Baxter’s Nerve

Dancer• Pain tolerance much higher
• Pressure to push through smaller disabilities

Questions
• Can hydrodissecting the common peroneal nerve IMMEDIATELY and LONG TERM improve muscle strength in dancers?
• Will dancers feel improvement in strength? Ability to rehearse? Perform?
• Is the procedure well tolerated?
-

• ZERO out of THREE had any improvement
• Two were from L5 and post-operative

Data Ranges• No responses below 3 for strength and rehearsal
• Only one response below 3 for performance (2)
• Only two responses above 2 for pain (3)
• 45% (10/22): at least one response of 5
• 27% (6/22): at least two responses of 5

Why in Dancers?
• Stretching
• Australian Ballet PTs: STOP static calf stretches
• Compression: kneeling on floor
• Weakness: weaker gastrocnemius causes increase in soleus recruitment
-
Strengths• All dancers highly trained/elite
• Accepted into college dance program
• Current professional dancer
• Current university dance faculty
• One operator performing all tests
• Multiple inclusion criteria for assessing nerve entrapment
-
Strengths• Mixed method study
• Quantitative
• Qualitative
• Functional and practical assessments
• Assessing tolerance of procedure
-
Weaknesses• Outcome study
• No control group
• No blinding
• Not truly quantitative
• No true measurement of muscle strength
• No EMG measurements
-
Weaknesses• Did not take ultrasound measurements
• Did not use hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin and zinc*
