    Author: Rousseau JJ, Reznik M, LeJeune GN, Franck G.
    Journal: Arch Neurol; 1979 Nov; 36(11):723-4. PubMed ID: 508134.
    Abstract:
    A progressive bilateral sciatic neuropathy appeared in a 52-year-old man as an unusual complication of pentazocine-induced muscle fibrosis. Surgical neurolysis showed that the sciatic nerves were firmly compressed by large fibrous bands involving the entire gluteal musculature.
