P 99 Additional diagnostic benefit of high resolution ultrasound of the peripheral nerv in addition to classical ENG 2 case reports of posttraumatic nerve injury from an interdisciplinary consultancy

Posttraumatic/post-surgery nerve injury is a frequent problem in surgical departments and has a grave impact on patients recovery and functionality.Exact diagnosis of nerve function and severity of the injury is often a demanding task for electrophysiology laboratories. Classical neurophysiological exams like EMG and ENG occasionally have limited only value in establishing the location and etiology of nerve injury. High resolution ultrasound is a valuable additional tool to plan further treatment.
