“…Differently, other variation types are described by these authors, however less frequently. In these cases, the whole sciatic nerve can penetrate the piriformis muscle 8 , or the common fibular nerve may extend through the superior border and the tibial nerve through the inferior border of this muscle 2 . This variation between the sciatic nerve and the piriformis muscle, which leads to nerve compression sciatalgia 6,9,10 , causes the piriformis syndrome 5 . However, this nervous compression is not a clinical entity present only when one or both portions of the sciatic nerve cross the piriformis tendinous fibers but also when they cross the muscular fibers.…”

“…The "piriformis muscle syndrome", a term that refers to a type of sciatic pain related to an abnormal condition of the piriformis muscle with a frequent traumatic origin, was initially described by Yeoman 5 . This syndrome represents a clinical entity characterized by sensitive, motor and trophic disturbances in the region of the sciatic nerve anatomical distribution 3,6 .…”

Context: Piriform muscle syndrome can be caused by abnormal passage of the sciatic nerve or one of its parts through the belly of the piriform muscle. Objective: To analyze the anatomical and measurement relationships between the piriform muscle and the sciatic nerve in order to contribute towards better anatomoclinical understanding of the gluteal region. Method: Twenty adult cadavers of both sexes were used. The sciatic nerve and piriform muscle were dissected, measured and photodocumented. Results: The sciatic nerve was seen to be a single trunk passing through the lower margin of the piriform muscle in 85% of the 40 gluteal regions, and 15% showed bilateral variation characterized by the passage of the common fibular nerve through the piriform muscle. The data obtained did not show any statistically significant differences.

“…According to Papadopoulos et al, the incidence of piriformis syndrome is six times more frequent in females than in males [20]. It was first described by Yeoman [21] in 1928 while studying the cause of low back pain and Robinson [22] in 1947 coined the term "piriformis syndrome".…”

“…It is in the following position both inside and outside the pelvis, has a function substantially of external rotation, with a slight abduction and extension component, and stabilizes the femur during the resting phases, preventing the femur from rotating inside. [5][6][7] In relation to its function, it can be subject to hypertrophic phenomena and stiffening that may trigger the so-called piriformis syndrome.…”

“…Symptomatology may result from the compression of the sciatic against the bony arch of the greater sciatic foramen or, of the bottleneck of the same nerve inside the muscle. 5,8 Etiology is multifactorial; often the most common cause is traumatic-type. Other causes are dysmetria of the lower limbs, myositis of the piriformis muscle, or the outcome of hip surgery.…”

Piriformis syndrome is a pain-causing disease of the sciatalgic type, also called false sciatalgia. Indeed, it is possible that a suffering of this muscle, caused by different etiologies, is responsible for a more or less pronounced sciatalgic pain. All this in the absence of overtly pathological problems such as a disc hernia, a canalized stenosis or a mass in a ischio-crural region. We dealt with this problem in a group of patients who had been submitted to various therapies in the immediately preceding periods: pharmacology, tecartherapy and manual physiotherapy. After these treatments, these subjects had the same painful symptoms without any improvement. Therefore, they were treated with oxygen ozone by infiltration. Evaluation according to the visual analog scale, baropodometric examination and clinical trials of Freiberg and Page and Nagle were performed before, in the middle, and at the end of the treatment. The results were very encouraging, showing a noticeable improvement until the disappearance of symptoms.
