Low-profile double plating versus dorsal LCP in stabilization of the olecranon fractures

Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 2020
Introduction Proximal ulna fractures are common in orthopaedic surgery. Comminuted fractures require a high primary stability by the osteosynthesis, to allow an early functional rehabilitation as fast as possible, to reduce long-term limitations of range

High‐Resolution Ultrasound of Clinically Relevant Sensory Nerves of the Arm and the Forearm

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Technological advancements in ultrasound systems, particularly the development of high‐ and ultra‐high‐frequency transducers, now allow for the detailed evaluation of sub‐millimetric sensory nerves in the upper limb, extending to their distal branches. This provides invaluable insights in patients with suspected neuropathies.
