Nerve compression syndromes of the lower extremity present a challenge in differential diagnosis. Compression of the common peroneal nerve occurs relatively frequently; compression of the sciatic nerve occurs infrequently. The pattern of weakness helps distinguish lumbar root entrapment from peripheral compression syndromes. Compression syndromes must also be differentiated from diabetic, alcoholic or vasculitic neuropathy. Recovery correlates with the degree and duration of nerve injury. Thus, early diagnosis and treatment are important.
下肢神经卡压综合征在鉴别诊断方面存在挑战。腓总神经受压相对常见；坐骨神经受压则较为罕见。肌无力的模式有助于区分腰神经根卡压与周围神经卡压综合征。卡压综合征还必须与糖尿病性、酒精性或血管炎性神经病变相鉴别。恢复情况与神经损伤的程度和持续时间相关。因此，早期诊断和治疗很重要。
