Abstract

Introduction

Liliequist’s membrane is an arachnoid membrane that forms a barrier within the basilar cisternal complex. This structure is an important landmark in approaches to the sellar and parasellar regions. The importance of this membrane was largely recognized after the advance of neuroendoscopic techniques. Many studies were, thereafter, published reporting different anatomic findings.

Method

A detailed search for studies reporting anatomic and surgical findings of Liliequist’s membrane was performed using “PubMed,” and included all the available literature. Manual search for manuscripts was also conducted on references of papers reporting reviews.

Results

Liliequist’s membrane has received more attention recently. The studies have reported widely variable results, which were systematically organized in this paper to address the controversy.

Conclusion

Regardless of its clinical and surgical significance, the anatomy of Liliequist’s membrane is still a matter of debate.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.
