There are more than 2 dozen nerve entrapment syndromes in the body. Generally, these occur at sites of fibroosseous or fibromuscular tunnels. Any insult that leads to an increase in the size of the nerve or a decrease in the volume of the tunnel will cause compression. Resultant nerve ischemia sets off a cascade of events that lead to predictable clinical signs and symptoms. Here, we review the most common nerve entrapment syndromes and highlight their assessment and management. Specific clinical scenarios that require a high suspicion for nerve entrapment are highlighted.
