Operative treatment of inflammatory neuralgia of the sciatic nerve
Blood traction of the sciatic nerve in sciatica so often encountered belongs to the number of rarely practiced operations. Without going into the history of the issue, I will only remind that as early as 1906, at the VI Congress of Russian Surgeons, Wenglovsky, making a report on this topic, based on his own observations, gave a favorable review of the operation and promoted its use. Nevertheless, as far as I am acquainted with the Russian surgical press, I cannot say that Russian surgeons have followed this appeal. The operation in question continues to be unused. Meanwhile, the agony and frequency of the disease, as well as powerlessness of therapy and inaccessibility of mud cure for the majority of patients, force to look for a quick and reliable remedy for its elimination.
