Summary
Peripheral nerve injuries(PNIs) come in many varieties and their mechanism of injury can have a tremendous impact on a patient’s expected outcome. As discussed in Chapter 26, depending on the mechanism, PNIs have a relatively well-choreographed response to injury. However, much of this sequence will be influenced by both modifiable and non-modifiable prognostic factors. Furthermore, this mechanism of injury and its severity will also help dictate the appropriate treatment of the injury. In this chapter, basic science principles and models addressing PNIs are more specifically examined as they occur in the context of trauma, entrapment, tumors, and the changes occurring in acute and chronic pain states. Clinical case examples of such injuries will be discussed to conclude each section, including their respective management.
