 Pudendal nerve entrapment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pudendal nerve entrapment or PNE is a cause of chronic pain in which the pudendal nerve, located in the pelvis, is entrapped or compressed.
"the reality is that pudendal nerve neuropathy is probably only a likely diagnosis if the pain is unilateral, has a burning quality and is exacerbated by unilateral rectal palpation of the ischial spine, and the pudendal motor latency is delayed on that side only.
Anatomic abnormalities can result in PNE due to the pudendal nerve being fused to different parts of the anatomy, or trapped between the aforementioned ligaments.

 PUDENDAL NERVE BLOCK
The trunk of the pudendal nerve passes posterior to the junction of the ischial spine and the sacrospinous ligament.
Here, the nerve is medial to the internal pudendal vessels, and it is at this point that the nerve is blocked.
While maintaining constant pressure on the plunger of the syringe, the needle is slowly advanced until the sudden loss of resistance emerged from the other side of the ligament and is now lying in the same tissue plane as the pudendal nerve and vessels.

 Prostatitis and Pudendal Nerve Entrapment PNE
At surgical treatment of PNE, Robert noted that 11% of patients required excision of an elongated ischial spine that was interpreted by the surgeon as conflicting with the pudendal nerve.
Chronic pelvic pain is often caused by a compression neuropathy of the pudendal nerve.
Review of the work of these physicians indicates that anesthesia in the pudendal distribution is obtained with perineural injections that the injecting needle touching the pudendal nerve will induce “radiculopathies in the pudendal distribution” and a clamp like contraction of the anal sphincter is demonstrative of adequate placement of the needle.

 Pudendal Info
The pudendal nerve carries sensations from the external genitals, the lower rectum, and the perineum (the area between the genitals and the rectum).
PNE is a nerve condition causing pain for no apparent reason in the area served by the pudendal nerve.
We must do this, because pudendal neuropathy is so painful and the entire medical profession is still learning about it.

 Short-term timecourse of bilateral pudendal nerve injury on leak-point pressure in female rats
Despite the differences between animals and humans, rats have been used to demonstrate that nerve injury occurs during vaginal distension [10,33] and that the pudendal nerve is particularly vulnerable to damage during vaginal delivery [10], similar to the clinical situation.
This experiment was designed to study the time course of functional changes in the urethra after pudendal nerve crush in rats.
Future experiments will be aimed at documenting functional changes and examining the natural recovery after pudendal nerve injury over a longer time period, as well as studying the effects of interventions.
