Zusammenfassung
Die vorliegende Kasuistik beschreibt eine iatrogen bedingte sekundäre Schädigung des N. suralis nach minimalinvasiver, perkutaner Naht einer Achillessehnenruptur und deren erfolgreiche operative Revision. Sie soll zudem ganz allgemein das Problem der Schädigungsmöglichkeiten des N. suralis im Rahmen von Achillessehnenrupturen beleuchten.
Iatrogenic Sural Nerve Entrapment Following a Percutaneus Achilles Tendon Repair
This case report presents a sural nerve entrapment syndrome caused by a loop of an Achilles tendon suture. The lesion was completely reversible after a surgical reintervention. Furthermore sural nerve lesions occurring in combination with Achilles tendon ruptures and operations are discussed in general.
