ABSTRACT
Compression neuropathies are a prevalence of up to 3.8% in the general population; there are anatomical regions vulnerable to compression of peripheral nerves results in significant clinical problems, with the consequent decrease in the quality of life of patient suffering; pursuant to the above, must be understood pathophysiology of nerve compression consisting of a series of metabolic changes that occur at the site of the injury to a body search restore balance.
