Piriformis syndrome: implications of anatomical variations, diagnostic techniques, and treatment options.

摘要: Details of piriformis syndrome, including the proper diagnosis and most effective form treatment, continue to be controversial. While cause, diagnosis, treatment syndrome remain elusive, many studies have been conducted investigate newly developed diagnostic techniques as well various options for piriformis-induced sciatica. Despite quantity literature, few demonstrated statistically significant results that support one over another. Thus, despite evidence supporting newer methodologies research should continue. It is important not only evaluate outcomes based on associated pain relief, but also functional anatomical return patients experience from these studied treatments in order fully explore therapy syndrome.
