Publication Authors: Iyengar. KP

The popularity of weight training, bodybuilding and general physical conditioning has led to an increased rate of musculoskeletal injuries, such as nerve compression caused by muscle hypertrophy and, stretching of nerves peripherally. We present a case of anterior interosseous nerve (AIN) entrapment syndrome/neuropathy otherwise known as Kiloh-Nevin syndrome in a 22-year-old weightlifter. Knowledge of this injury is paramount for practitioners to increase awareness among athletes and bodybuilders.
