Zusammenfassung

Nervenkompressionssyndrome werden oft als Differenzialdiagnose von therapierefraktären orthopädischen Krankheitsbildern nicht bedacht und weisen so häufig lange Leidensverläufe auf. Neben der klinischen Diagnostik durch eine gezielte Anamnese und körperliche Untersuchung sind die zusätzliche spezifische Bildgebung sowie elektrophysiologische Untersuchung oftmals zielführend. Therapieansätze sind vielfältig und reichen von Physiotherapie und lokalen Infiltrationen bis hin zur chirurgischen Nervendekompression. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, Nervenkompressionssyndrome der oberen Extremität anhand ihrer anatomischen Prädilektionsstellen aufzuzeigen, die entsprechende Diagnostik darzustellen und Therapiemöglichkeiten vorzustellen.

Summary

Peripheral nerve entrapments are important differential diagnosis of orthopedic diseases, which are often ignored, resulting in prolonged suffering of the patient. Hereby a precise diagnosis can be achieved via an explicit anamnesis as well as specific clinical examination combined with electrophysiological testing and imaging. Hereby various therapeutical approaches from physiotherapy, local infiltration up to surgical decompression can be considered. Aim of this work is to depict peripheral nerve entrapments due to anatomical constrictions and demonstrate their diagnosis and therapy.
