Anomalous Higher Branching Pattern of the Femoral Nerve: a Case Report with Clinical Implications

open access: yesActa Medica, 2007
The femoral nerve usually divides into anterior and posterior branches below the inguinal ligament. In the present case, we report the anomalous higher branching pattern of the femoral nerve on both sides of a 52 year male cadaver.

Health-related quality of life, adiposity, and sedentary behavior in patients with early schizophrenia: Preliminary study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Objective: To examine adiposity and sedentary behavior in relation to health-related quality of life (QoL) in patients with early schizophrenia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was used to assess adiposity by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans ...

Reduction of the incidence of development of venous thromboembolism by ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block in total knee arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2011
BackgroundVenous thromboembolism (VTE) and the subsequent development of pulmonary embolism (PE) is a major cause of post-operative mortality in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Application of Supercharge End-to-Side (SETS) Obturator to Femoral Nerve Transfer in Electrical Injury-Induced Neuropathy to Improve Knee Extension

open access: yesArchives of Plastic Surgery, 2022
Femoral nerve injuries are devastating injuries that lead to paralysis of the quadriceps muscles, weakening knee extension to prohibit ambulation. We report a devastating case of electrical injury-induced femoral neuropathy, where no apparent site of ...

Voluntary activation of human knee extensors measured using transcranial magnetic stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The aim of this study was to determine the applicability and reliability of a transcranial magnetic stimulation twitch interpolation technique for measuring voluntary activation of a lower limb muscle group.

Knotted Femoral Nerve Catheter [PDF]

open access: yesAnaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2004
We describe a case of knotting of a femoral nerve catheter which prevented removal by traction after knee replacement surgery. In this context, early surgical removal should be performed as bacterial colonization of femoral catheters is common. Radiological imaging of the catheter may assist decision-making about whether to persist with traction and ...

Emergency physician-performed ultrasound-guided nerve blocks in proximal femoral fractures provide safe and effective pain relief: a prospective observational study in The Netherlands

open access: yesInternational Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2018
Background The treatment of acute pain in the emergency department is not always optimal. Peripheral nerve blocks using “blind” or nerve stimulator techniques have substantial disadvantages.

The course of recovery of locomotor function over a 10‐week observation period in a rat model of femoral nerve resection and autograft repair

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2020
Background A great extent of knowledge on peripheral nerve regeneration has been gathered using the rat sciatic nerve model. The femoral nerve model of the rat offers an interesting alternative, as it lacks disadvantageous features such as automutilation.

Femoral nerve palsy during Pavlik harness treatment for developmental dysplasia of the hip is not an indication for harness abandonment

open access: yesJournal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2023
Objectives: The aim of this study was to report the incidence of femoral nerve palsy in developmental dysplasia of the hip children treated with Pavlik harness, to identify any possible associated risk factors, and to evaluate its outcome without any ...
