Accuracy of ultrasound and MRI in the diagnosis of common peroneal nerve injuries
Background
This study aimed to determine the accuracy of ultrasound (US) and MRI compared to intraoperative findings in patients who underwent surgery for their common peroneal nerve (CPN) injury.
Methods
Patients who underwent surgical management of a CPN injury with preoperative US were reviewed. The status of the CPN as interpreted by the radiologist in the preoperative US and MRI were recorded. The intraoperative findings of the CPN were compared to the imaging findings. The CPN was classified as intact, partial injury, or complete transection. The location of the injury, and presence of a neuroma-in-continuity or stump neuroma were recorded. The sensitivity and specificity of US for diagnosis of a complete transection and an intact CPN were calculated.
Results
Thirteen patients were included in this study. Preoperative US accurately diagnosed a complete transection in 3 out of 4 patients and an intact CPN in 4 out of 5 patients. MRI did not accurately identify the status of the CPN in any patients. US had 75% sensitivity and 78% specificity for detecting complete transection, and 80% sensitivity and 63% specificity for detecting an intact CPN. The level of injury was correctly identified in 7 out of 13 cases by US and 1 out of 8 cases by MRI. A neuroma was correctly identified in 7 of 11 cases by US and 1 out of 8 cases by MRI.
Conclusion
US has a high sensitivity and specificity when diagnosing CPN lesions and was more accurate than MRI.
期刊介绍:
The journal "Acta Neurochirurgica" publishes only original papers useful both to research and clinical work. Papers should deal with clinical neurosurgery - diagnosis and diagnostic techniques, operative surgery and results, postoperative treatment - or with research work in neuroscience if the underlying questions or the results are of neurosurgical interest. Reports on congresses are given in brief accounts. As official organ of the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies the journal publishes all announcements of the E.A.N.S. and reports on the activities of its member societies. Only contributions written in English will be accepted.
