A new type of peripheral nerve lesion.

R Birch1, F G St Clair Strange.   

Abstract

We report a hitherto undescribed type of peripheral nerve lesion in which pressure results in mechanical demyelinisation of a length of nerve with interruption of conduction. On release of the pressure, early recovery may follow the return of the myelin insulation.
