Lateral Rotation of the Lower Extremity Increases the Distance Between the Femoral Nerve and Femoral Artery: An Ultrasonographic Study

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2007
Femoral nerve block (FNB) is by far the most useful lower extremity regional anesthetic technique for the anesthesiologist, and high-resolution ulrrasonography is a useful tool with which to guide the performance of FNB.

Iatrogenic sciatic nerve injury due to cerclage wiring for proximal periprosthetic femoral fracture: A rare case report

JPRAS Open, 2022
Summary: Cerclage wiring is used to reinforce the stability of fractures and optimize plate fixations for femoral fractures such as periprosthetic fractures. However, cerclage wiring requires attention to neurovascular structures to prevent injuries.

Thermoresponsive Soft and Self‐Anchoring Cuff Electrode for Chronic Peripheral Interfaces

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel thermoresponsive, soft and self‐anchoring (TSSA) cuff electrode utilizing shape memory polymers achieves autonomous, sutureless peripheral nerve fixation. Driven by thermally induced pre‐strain and tissue adhesion, the device self‐closes and softens at body temperature, successfully minimizing mechanical mismatch. This adaptive platform ensures
