TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Peripheral Nerve Injuries: Mononeuropathy A1 - Craig, Anita A2 - Mitra, Raj Y1 - 2019 N1 - T2 - Principles of Rehabilitation Medicine AB - LOCALIZED PERIPHERAL NERVE (PN) injuries are very common and arise from a wide range of etiologies. They are seen in healthy individuals and also may arise from complications from other disorders or traumatic injuries. PN injuries may accompany or complicate rehabilitation management of other disorders, for example, nerve compressions due to use of assistive devices or bracing, or overuse injuries in less impaired extremities. An understanding of the anatomic course and innervation of peripheral nerves and common sites of entrapment is important in recognizing and diagnosing these injuries. As PN injuries can accompany other musculoskeletal disorders and trauma, their existence can sometimes be initially masked. Therefore, it is important to recognize high-risk scenarios for nerve injury as they may impede expected recovery from the traumatic injury.
