The purpose of this case series was to report the results of patients with a sciatic nerve palsy who presented between 2000 and 2010, following primary and revision THA and were treated with neurolysis. A retrospective review was made of 12 patients (eight women and four men), with sciatic nerve palsy following THA. The mean age of the patients was 62.7 years (50 to 72; standard deviation 6.9). They underwent interfascicular neurolysis for sciatic nerve palsy, after failing a trial of non-operative treatment for a minimum of six months. Following surgery, a statistically and clinically significant improvement in motor function was seen in all patients. The mean peroneal nerve score function improved from 0.42 (0 to 3) to 3 (1 to 5) (p &lt; 0.001). The mean tibial nerve motor function score improved from 1.75 (1 to 4) to 3.92 (3 to 5) (p = 0.02).The mean improvement in sensory function was a clinically negligible 1 out of 5 in all patients. In total, 11 patients reported improvement in their pain following surgery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>We conclude that neurolysis of the sciatic nerve has a favourable prognosis in patients with a sciatic nerve palsy following THA. Our findings suggest that surgery should not be delayed for &gt; 12 months following injury.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2015;97-B:1345\u20139<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620x.97b10.35590","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,10,1]],"date-time":"2015-10-01T10:43:23Z","timestamp":1443696203000},"page":"1345-1349","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1302\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["Neurolysis for the treatment of sciatic nerve palsy associated with total hip arthroplasty"],"prefix":"10.1302","volume":"97-B","author":[{"given":"G.
