梨狀肌起自於骨盆的後壁,肌纖維發自第2、3、4骶椎椎體前面,向外集中穿坐骨大孔進入臀部,而是止於股骨大轉子上緣的後部。




當梨狀肌因解剖上的變異或因外傷,不良工作姿勢與動作而導致梨狀肌發炎水腫、痙攣、肥厚而影響刺激到坐骨神經,造成臀部疼痛甚至放射傳導到下肢,稱為梨狀肌症候群或梨狀肌綜合症。




梨狀肌症候群(Piriformis syndrome):這是指坐骨神經通過骨盆的坐骨大孔時,被橫斜而過的梨狀肌壓迫引起的疼痛。這類的疼痛包括下肢麻痛、感覺異常、有時合併無力,或有放電的感覺,簡直就是一般人所謂的「坐骨神經痛」,唯一的不同處在於本病不是因為「骨刺」,而是因為「肌肉」引起疼痛。大部分的病因是外傷(跌倒使臀部突然墜地),也可能因過度使用臀部或下肢肌肉引起。由於是肌肉的病變,所以病人常照了許多腰椎的X光都沒有異常;如果不巧可以看到一些退化或骨刺,就可能被當成腰椎神經根病變治療而不得要領;事實上,有一些簡單的理學檢查,可以在門診就對此病作出診斷,並馬上以類固醇注射,往往有很好的治療效果。



避免引起梨狀肌痙攣的因子,如:
1.盡量不穿高跟鞋。
2.不翹腿。
3.臀後口袋不放錢包。
4.坐伸展梨狀肌運動:仰臥,彎曲患側下肢,將其外踝放至伸直的健側腿膝蓋上,將患側盡量往內收,停留約十秒,重複數次。
This patient admitted for parenteral antibiotics however, septic shock took place the next day and emergent I&D was arranged in the morning. He was transferred to ICU for hypotension.
