Fig. 4

A 63-year-old male with bilateral foot drop for 3 years with electrophysiological evidence of bilateral chronic severe partial axonal lesion of sciatic nerves. MR neurography showed bilateral sciatic neuropathy: A Axial T1 and B T2 SPAIR images demonstrate thickening and hyperintensity of both sciatic nerves (arrows in B) with enlarged fascicles of both sciatic nerves (arrows in A). Axial T1 images through the pelvis and upper thigh (C and D) show chronic muscle denervation changes involving both gluteal maximus muscles (arrow in C) and right thigh muscles (arrows in D). Coronal 3D VISTA (E, F) images show focal thickening and hyperintensity of bilateral L5 and S1 nerves (arrows in E, F)
