    Abstract:
    Advance knowledge of anatomy is a prerequisite for the peripheral nerve surgeon. This article serves to provide an outline of anatomic regions where nerve entrapment or compression can occur. Each section is subdivided into anatomic regions where the etiology, indications, and relevant and aberrant anatomy are discussed, as well as common surgical approaches to the problematic anatomic site. The purpose is to provide an overview for the peripheral nerve surgeon and offer a valuable resource to provide a better understanding and optimal care for this patient population.
