    An overlooked nerve in neuropathies associated with intragluteal injections: the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Polat, Musa; Ayaz, Nusret
    Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of posterior femoral cutaneous nerve (PFCN) lesions in patients referred to the electrophysiology laboratory with an initial diagnosis of sciatic nerve lesion following injection, and to create awareness that PFCN lesions can occur following intramuscular injections administered to the gluteal region. Methods Fifty-seven patients who were referred to the electrophysiology laboratory because of injection neuropathy were identified from the hospital records. In addition to the routine electrophysiological examination, PFCN sensory conduction study was performed according to the technique of Dumitru and Nelson. The scores of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs Pain Scale were recorded for all participants. Results Of the 21 participants who agreed to participate in the study, 2 patients were diagnosed with PFCN lesions, one of them had isolated complete PFCN lesion, and another had it accompanied by sciatic nerve lesion. Patients with PFCN lesions had a lower body mass index and a higher HADS score than patients with sciatic nerve lesions (p = 0.01, p = 0.04, respectively) Conclusions As correct diagnosis is the priority starting point for successful treatment, clinicians should plan examinations taking into consideration the fact that PFCN lesions can occur following gluteal region injection.

    Objective: Suicidal behavior in adolescents is an important public health problem, and it ranks first among the causes of prison deaths in incarcerated adolescents(IAs). The aim of this study is to determine the probability of suicide and associated risk factors in IAs. Method: Seventy-one male adolescents in a reformatory center were contrasted with a matched group of 71 male adolescent with no psychiatric disorder and no criminal record. Suicidal probability and psychiatric symptomatology were assessed with the Suicide Probability Scale, SA-45 Questionnaire, respectively. Results: It was determined that the probability of suicide was higher in IAs, and depression and hostility symptoms, the presence of another individual involved in delinquency in family had predictive effects. It was also found that there was a positive correlation between the probability of suicide and the number of delinquencies, the number of incarceration, and a negative correlation between attending to school or work while in reformatory and being visited by relatives while in reformatory. Conclusions: The results suggest that when assessing suicide risk for IAS, it may be useful to pay attention to those with symptoms of depression or hostility, those with multiple delinquencies or entrance to reformatory, and those who have family members involved in delinquency.
