The Composite Radial Forearm Free Flap for Tibialis Anterior Tendon Reconstruction: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Distal leg reconstruction is particularly challenging due to limited local options. This challenge is accentuated when there is a concurrent tendon rupture and threatened hardware, making soft tissue coverage crucial for preserving limb function.

Reconstruction of Buccal Mucosa, Upper and Lower Lip Defect Using Free Radial Forearm Flap with Palmaris Longus Tendon: A Case Presentation [PDF]
Introduction: Advanced lip carcinomas can invade adjacent structures. Performing surgery for these cancers will lead to defects in this anatomically and functionally important area and will cause post-op difficulties such as drooling, speech alterations ...

A very rare case of the accessory palmaris longus muscle and clinical significance
The palmaris longus muscle is located in the forearm region. Its morphological variability was noted during standard anatomical dissection of the upper limb. The muscle was characterised by a normal course, i.e.

Ultrasound‐Guided Peripheral Nerve Blocks for Percutaneous Treatments of Common Tendinopathies
Objectives Ultrasound‐guided percutaneous needle fenestration (UPNF) and percutaneous needle tenotomy (UPNT) are minimally invasive procedures commonly used to treat chronic tendinopathies. However, these techniques can be painful, potentially limiting patient tolerance, satisfaction, and procedural feasibility. Although local anesthetics (LAs) provide

Anatomy and variations of palmaris longus in fetuses.
The aim of this study was to assess the absence of the palmaris longus, the proportion of the lengths of tendon and muscle belly, the development of the tendon and the belly during the fetal period, look for any difference between sides and gender. Fifty-eight spontaneously aborted human fetuses (26 female, 32 male, 116 upper extremities) were studied.

The evidence for old age motor neuron death: A scoping review
We systematically evaluated the extant literature on age‐related motor neuron (MN) death in aging, focusing on studies directly assessing MNs. We show that in the spinal cord and brainstem, there is robust evidence for MN loss, particularly in the human spinal cord. In rats, MN loss was readily observed across a variety of labelling methods and regions,
