Multiple entrapment neuropathies in depression.

T L Riley, A B Pleet, C R Stewart.   

Abstract

A 72-year-old chronically depressed man developed bilateral ulnar, median, and peroneal nerve palsies. Chronic depression predisposes to pressure neuropathies because of prolonged immobility and because of postures with leg crossings, resting arms on elbows, and resting chin on hyperextended wrist.
