Saphenous Nerve Conduction Study Techniques

Shodada Medical Center, Shaheed Beheshti Medical University, Tehran, Iran

Article Outline

 

I read with interest the article by Chiodo et al1 that appeared in the April issue. However, I believe that my 2005 article2 addresses the same topic and so the authors’ assertion that theirs is the first report to consider the body mass index in this setting is incorrect.
