Non-Invasive Neurosensory Testing Used to Diagnose and Confirm Successful Surgical Management of Lower Extremity Deep Distal Posterior Compartment Syndrome

Presented by:	Journal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury / Eric H Williams, Don E Detmer, Gregory P Guyton and A Lee Dellon
Summary points:	A 25-year-old male presents with complaints of bilateral exercise-induced pain in the backs of both lower legs. Medical history, physical examination, neurosensory testing, and surgery are described; images provided. The authors discuss the merits of noninvasive neurosensory testing to detect reversible changes in sensory nerve function after a provocative test.
