Compressive neuropathy. Compressive neuropathy. A, Sagittal oblique plane T1-weighted image (680/14/3) reveals marked flattening of the left sciatic nerve (arrow) between hypertrophied obturator internus and gluteus maximus muscles. Note, however, that the transverse fascicular morphology is preserved.B, Sagittal oblique plane fat-saturated T2-weighted fast spin-echo (6000/102/3; echo train length, 8) image, obtained at the same level as that shown in A, shows abnormally increased sciatic nerve T2 hyperintensity (arrow) that approaches regional vessel signal intensity.
