So today I have a classic case. 70s, woman, hip revision of a failed hip replacement. After the surgery, can't walk. Exam: trace movement ipsilateral knee ext, normal hip flex. All else normal.
NCV shows no response ipsi femoral motor. Contralateral saphaneous could not be elicited. Sural not elicited. EMG shows active denervation in the quad, no motor units.
I love classics. I feel like that guy on the A-team, I love it when the history, exam, and NCV come together.
