Abstract des Autors

A 40-year-old bodybuilder had a six-week history of progressively worsening pain of the medial part of her right knee that did not respond to rest and a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Somatosensory evoked potential readings suggested that both branches of the right saphenous nerve were entrapped. Management consisting of two intramuscular injections of bupivacaine, administrations of two different NSAIDs, and application of knee wraps around the subsartorial region resolved the patients symptoms within five weeks. She then resumed an intensive lower-extremity exercise regimen without discomfort, in preparation for a body-building competition. Verf.-Referat
