초록
The prolonged pressure against the buttock or posterior thigh may cause the stretch or direct compression of the sciatic nerve. A sixty-year old man fell asleep, heavily inebriated in the lotus position, and developed paralysis, paresthesia and sensory loss in both lower extremities on awakening after 10 hours of sleep. A nerve conduction study and electromyography revealed bilateral sciatic neuropathy. The symptoms gradually recovered spontaneously. Stayng in the lotus position for a long time in a drunken stupor can damage the sciatic nerve bilaterally.
Abstract
The prolonged pressure against the buttock or posterior thigh may cause the stretch or direct compression of the sciatic nerve. A sixty-year old man fell asleep, heavily inebriated in the lotus position, and developed paralysis, paresthesia and sensory loss in both lower extremities on awakening after 10 hours of sleep. A nerve conduction study and electromyography revealed bilateral sciatic neuropathy. The symptoms gradually recovered spontaneously. Stayng in the lotus position for a long time in a drunken stupor can damage the sciatic nerve bilaterally.
