(18)F-FDG PET/CT is potentially useful for identifying dystonic cervical muscles for BT therapy in patients with ICD.

The target nerve was located within 5 mm from the needle with less than 0.5-mA stimulation current. The injectate spread to more than 20 mm on average even when a small volume (100 microL) of the injectate was injected in rabbit sciatic nerves.

OBJECTIVES: Muscle involvement in Behçet's disease (BD) is rare, and several cases have been reported in the literature. Therefore, this study aimed to describe the clinical, laboratory and imaging findings in adult patients presenting with BD-associated myositis before the diagnosis of BD. METHODS: We retrospectively screened patients who visited a locomotive medicine clinic presenting with myalgia, local swelling, or tenderness of extremities without an established diagnosis of BD. We enrolled

INTRODUCTION/AIMS: Intraneural ganglion cysts (INGCs) are non-neoplastic mucinous cysts within the epineurium of peripheral nerves. Characteristics of INGCs around the hip joint have not been adequately described. We aimed to describe clinical features, imaging findings, and treatment outcomes in patients with INGCs originating from the hip joint. METHODS: We retrospectively included cystic lesions around the hip joint satisfying the following inclusion criteria over 6 years: (1) multilocular el

This is a rare case of sciatic neuropathy in a 46-year-old man secondary to an intraneural ganglion cyst from the hip joint extending upward to the lumbar plexus and the L5 nerve root. Magnetic resonance neurography showed that the joint fluid passed through a labral tear and extended rostrally along the articular branch and the peroneal portion of the sciatic nerve to near the L5 nerve root. The condition was treated by arthroscopic disruption of the joint connection to the nerve with resolutio

Neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (N-TOS) is a chronic compressive brachial plexopathy that involves the C8, T1 roots, and/or lower trunk. Medial antebrachial cutaneous (MABC) nerve conduction study (NCS) abnormality is reportedly one of the most sensitive findings among the features of N-TOS. The aim of the present study was to report clinical features, imaging findings, treatment, and prognoses of two N-TOS patients with no abnormalities in electrophysiological studies. Both patients present
